Background of the issue:
I am developing a site and have automatically translated all my 143 blog articles to English, German, and Spanish using WPML. I have set up the website correctly for navigation.
Symptoms:
Translations are not displaying on certain blog pages. The pages show the title and blog icon but no text, even though all articles are approved.
Questions:
Why are translations not displaying on certain blog pages despite being approved?
What steps can I take to ensure all translations appear correctly on my site?
Could you please increase the WordPress memory limit (WP Memory Limit) to at least 256 MB? WPML requires at least 128 MB.
Your current values are:
PHP Memory Limit 2048 MB
WP Memory Limit 40 MB
To do this, you need to connect to your website's server and open the wp-config.php file in a text editor. The file is located in the WordPress root directory.
Add this code to the wp-config.php file to increase WordPress's memory:
define ('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M');
Add this just before this comment:
// That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging.
The current values can be viewed under WPML > Support > WordPress.
These settings can be restricted directly by your hosting provider. Therefore, I recommend contacting them and asking them to change them directly if the changes are not applied immediately.
Now, please try to save the translations for the affected posts again.
If this will not solve the issue, please verify if those posts use any custom page builder widgets, like widgets coming from "Unlimited Elements for Elementor (Premium)" for example.
Let us know the results and we will be glad to assist you further.
I updated the limits, and I can see on my website that the limits are increased. Whenever I edit and save a translation, it works now. However - Do I now have to do this with all my 140 blogs for 3 different translations?
thanks for getting back. Glad to hear it works now.
You can try next and see if this helps.
- disable your cache plugin / system
- Go to Pages > All and bulk edit few post / pages, just click Update
- Go to WPML > Translation Managment and send for translation this pages. If you have already translated them via WPML editor / automatic translation you wont be charged anything. Just do not mark to overwrite old translation.
Let me know how it goes, and if it works just do this for more pages / post or all at one go.
Thanks for your reply. Just tried this, including these steps you told me. Unfortunately this way of fixing it doesn't work.
I still have blog pages that aren't showing any text. hidden link is an example
- Please backup the site files and database before providing us access.
- If you have a staging site where the problem can be reproduced, it is better to share access to the staging site.
