Product translation: issue with mandatory attributes

    Hi,

    We are developing a multilingual website (EN/FR/ES): https://eclub.mantano.com
    But we have an issue when translating a product:

    Connected as a vendor:
    – We create a product in English with 3 mandatory attributes
    – We add a translation by clicking on the “+” button associated with the French language
    – As expected, a message says “It’s a translated product, so product meta fields are blocked for editing because WPML will copy its value from the original language.”
    – When submitting the form (pressing “SAVE”), we have as many validation errors as mandatory attributes: “Attributes are required”.

    If we click on “Preview”, we see the attributes correctly displayed on the product page, but after saving the product as a draft, these attributes are not displayed anymore.

    After these actions, we go back to the WP admin to edit the product, and we see that in the French translation, the attributes are empty and not editable…

    It seems that there is a small bug there. Do you have any clue? BTW we are using the Ultimate version.

    Thanks a lot in advance !!!

    Thank you so much! Maybe this can help: we have a problem that might be closely related: when we create a product translation through the API following the WPML documentation, the product attributes of the translated product are empty.
    Maybe it’s a separate issue, I don’t know. I can open a different case for that.
    Good luck in your debugging, and congratulations again, since its’ really a great plugin!
