Problem: If you're trying to translate ::after elements in your website and cannot find them in the Advanced Translation Editor, follow these steps for a solution. Solution: 1. Add the following CSS to the custom CSS section of your theme:
<!-- For German language --><br />html[lang="de-DE"] #wpforms-10211-field_9-container .choice-1 .wpforms-image-choices-label::after {<br /> content: "DE - \A\Mit dem Paddel samt integrierten\A\ Thermometer kannst du beim Einheizen \A\ das Wasser umrühren, damit sich die\A\ Wärme gleichmäßig verteilt, und dabei ganz \A\ bequem die Temperatur ablesen.\A\ \A\ Kiefer-Vollholz\A\Länge: 90 cm\A\ Breite: 16 cm";<br />}<br /><br /><!-- For Slovak language --><br />html[lang="sv-SE"] #wpforms-10211-field_9-container .choice-1 .wpforms-image-choices-label::after {<br /> content: "SV - Vďaka lopatke a integrovanému teplomeru môžete vodu počas ohrievania miešať, aby sa teplo rovnomerne rozložilo a aby ste mohli ľahko odčítať teplotu. Masívne borovicové drevo Dĺžka: 90 cm Šírka: 16 cm";<br />}<br /><br /><!-- For English language --><br />html[lang="en-US"] #wpforms-10211-field_9-container .choice-1 .wpforms-image-choices-label::after {<br /> content: "EN - \A\With the paddle and integrated\A\ thermometer, you can \A\ stir the water while heating it up so that the\A\ heat is distributed evenly, and you can easily read the temperature.\A\ \A\ Solid pine wood\A\Length: 90 cm\A\ Width: 16 cm";<br />}
2. Clear all types of site/server/CDN cache to ensure the changes reflect correctly in all languages. 3. Update the translation as needed based on the test translation we added.

Problem: You have installed WPML and its add-ons but are unable to find a way to install the Media Translation add-on from your WordPress dashboard. Solution: If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend trying the following steps: 1. Navigate to Plugins → Add New in your WordPress dashboard and select the Commercial tab. Here, you can use our installer to add the Media Translation add-on. 2. Alternatively, you can manually download the Media Translation add-on as a .zip package from your WPML account by selecting Download WPML manually, and then upload it to your site.

Problem: The client was unable to change their site from development to production due to a persistent message and was unable to refresh or remove the 'development site' notice. Solution: We recommended the client to: 1. Ensure a full backup of the site. 2. Add the following code snippet to the theme's
functions.php
file:
add_action('init', function(){<br /> if (isset($_GET['remove_wpml_key'])) {<br /> $installer = WP_Installer::instance();<br /> $installer->remove_site_key('wpml', true);<br /> echo "Done. Remove the code from " .__FILE__;<br /> exit;<br /> }<br />}, 999);
3. Visit the site's URL with the query parameter
?remove_wpml_key
to trigger the code and remove the WPML site key. 4. After confirming the key has been removed, delete the code snippet from the
functions.php
file. 5. Attempt to register WPML again with a new key. In a separate attempt, we also suggested: 1. Deactivate the WPML plugin from the individual site within the network. 2. Activate the WPML plugin network-wide through the WordPress network admin dashboard. 3. After activating WPML network-wide, unregister the site using the network URL provided.

Problem: The client is trying to translate multiple WPForms on their website. They have activated the translation for WPForms, but when they go to Translation Management, they can only see one form available for translation instead of all five.
4. We clarified that the existing tickets shared are related to the same issue of WPForms not being visible in WPML > Translation Management and asked the client to confirm if this is the issue they are experiencing.
