    Hi!

    So a while back I was working on my recipe blog and usually WordPress and all my plugins get their updates automatically. On this day, though, there was a bar on the top of the page that I should update TranslatePress. I was hesitant at first (you know, updates can always cause problems), but went through with it and it looked like it went through without any issues. Unfortunately, I then discovered that nothing was working properly anymore.

    The first thing that concerned me, was that the visual editor hasn’t worked properly anymore. When I started the translation mode and wanted to click on a string or text to translate, there was no pen-icon to click. Sometimes if I get in and out of the translation mode, it will come up and I can click on it. It then also shows me the forms to enter the translation. But whenever I try to save it, it looks like it does but on the website it never shows.
    And there used to be a list of all the texts to translate, that I could choose from and enter translations for – the list is empty now, only the bold-written category headlines visible.

    Then I looked around here to find help and read that you can also translate your webside by working in the database and entering the translations directly into the table. I tried WP Data Access and found the dictionary database. I entered some translation that I knew where to find on my website. I saved those translations but they never showed on my webside. Then even tried another plugin (phpMyAdmin) for the same purpose – no success either.

    I’m lost and I want to release my recipe blog soon. Please, can anybody tell me how to get it working again? (Unfortunately I don’t know how to upload any screenshots, my website is still in “coming soon” mode and only admins can see it right now …)

  • Have you tried deleting TranslatePress and reinstalling the plugin?

    Yes, I did. I deactivated all plugins and then activated them again – no effect. I also deleted the TranslatePress plugin and then reinstalled it. Problems remain unchanged. Does anybody have an idea what this could be about?

    Nobody having an idea?

    So yesterday my wordpress did an automated update of TranslatePress, but the visual editor is still not working (or translating directly in the database). Help?!

    Nevermind, I was finally able to figure it out by myself. I had to update to a later PHP version. I was running on 7.4 and updated to 8.2. Now there are only a certain few links / words that don’t want to show as translated yet, but I will see by myself how I can fix it …
