Problem: You are experiencing an issue where the category link in your breadcrumbs points to the wrong language. For example, despite the post and category being in English, the breadcrumbs link redirects to a Spanish category. This issue affects multiple categories across your site. Solution: We recommend installing the WPML SEO plugin, which should resolve the issue with the incorrect language links in your breadcrumbs. You can download the WPML SEO plugin from here. After installation, verify that you have the latest versions of all your themes and plugins to ensure compatibility and functionality.
If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, please check the related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/ and confirm that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the problem persists, we highly recommend opening a new support ticket with us for further assistance.
Problem: You are trying to translate strings in your theme, but two strings are not translating as expected. The issues identified include using a hook to register strings with variables instead of direct strings, and using a templating language with double curly braces instead of the standard PHP syntax. Solution: First, ensure that you are directly passing the strings that need translation into the function, rather than using variables. This will help WPML recognize and translate them correctly. Second, switch to using standard PHP syntax as per WordPress Coding Standards for better compatibility with WPML. We also recommend testing your theme on a WPML test site to closely examine these issues.
If this solution does not resolve your issue or seems outdated, please check the related known issues and confirm that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins.

Problem: The client was unable to translate a specific string on their website, even after deleting the string from the string translation list, rescanning the theme, and clearing the WPML cache. The string would appear translated only when the 'scan while browsing' option was activated, but would revert to being untranslated when this option was deactivated. Solution: We recommended ensuring that the text in the Pricing section was correctly implemented for translation support. Specifically, the text should be wrapped in the Gettext function with the appropriate text domain. We provided a guide to help with this process: Translating the Theme You Created. Further steps included: 1. Navigating to "WPML > Theme and Plugins Localization". 2. Ensuring that the Localization options were selected and the text domain of the theme was added. 3. Scanning the theme again for strings. 4. Checking the string translation section to see if the string appeared.
If these steps do not resolve the issue or if the solution seems outdated or irrelevant to your case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the problem persists, please open a new support ticket.
