Problem: The client has a page originally in Bulgarian with translations in English and Greek. The Greek version has a different structure, and the client wants to edit it in Elementor while keeping it as a translation of the Bulgarian version. In newer versions of WPML, the option to 'Translate Independently' under Language is no longer available. Solution: We advised the client that the 'Translate Independently' option is still available when editing a duplicated page using the WordPress Editor. However, this option does not appear when using different translation editors, such as the WPML editor for manual translations. To resolve this, the client should ensure they are using the WordPress Editor from the default language screen. For more details, we recommended checking the documentation on using different translation editors: Using Different Translation Editors for Different Pages.

Problem: The client is experiencing issues where they are initially taken to the Translation Queue instead of directly to the translation editor when starting a new translation for products. Additionally, they encounter errors such as 'WPML couldn't translate this page' and 'The website is under heavy load' when attempting to translate certain templates. Solution: We have identified that the issue occurs specifically with a certain template and not with other pages or posts. The problem persists even when exporting and importing this template into a different custom post type and attempting to translate it. Since the root cause is unclear, we have escalated the matter to our second-tier support for further investigation. We will provide updates as soon as we have more information.

Problem: The client was unable to translate all content on a custom products post type created using Elementor and an ACF gallery field. Only specific sections were available for translation in the WPML Translation Editor, despite trying various troubleshooting steps such as resaving permalinks, updating software, and disabling advanced translation editors.
Solution: 1) Ensure that all Elementor Widgets used are supported by WPML. WPML supports widgets from Elementor and Elementor Pro by default. If using widgets from other sources like 'Ultimate Addons for Elementor Pro', ensure they have an XML configuration for translation. More details can be found here: https://wpml.org/documentation/support/language-configuration-files/how-to-register-page-builder-widgets-for-translation/ 2) Check the translation preference settings for the ACF Field Group. If set to 'Expert', adjust the settings accordingly. 3) Update all WPML plugins to their latest versions. 4) Disable any potentially conflicting plugins temporarily to check if they interfere with the translation process. 5) If issues persist, consider sending the page for translation again through WPML > Translation Management, and then take and translate the job.
