When it comes to translating a WooCommerce product, the first thing you need to do is make sure that you have the WPML plugin installed and activated. Once you have WPML installed, you need to go to the WordPress admin area and click on WPML -> Settings.

On the WPML settings page, you need to select the WooCommerce multilingual option from the left-hand sidebar.

Once you have selected the WooCommerce multilingual option, you will be taken to the WooCommerce Multilingual Settings page. On this page, you need to select the language in which you want to translate your products.

You can also select some other options on this page, but for now, we will just focus on translating products.

Once you have selected the language in which you want to translate your products, you need to go to the WordPress admin area and click on Products -> Add New. On the Add New Product page, you need to enter the product name, description, and other details in the default language.

Once you have entered all the details, you need to scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the “Add Translation” button.

On the Add Translation page, you need to select the language in which you want to translate your product. You will also see a field where you can enter the translated product name, description, and other details.

Once you have entered all the translated details, you need to scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on the “Add Translation” button.

PRO TIP: If you are using WPML to translate a WooCommerce product, be aware that there are some potential issues that can arise.

Firstly, when translating a product, be sure to select the correct language for the product. If you select the wrong language, the translation may not be accurate.

Secondly, be aware that some WooCommerce products may not translate correctly if they contain complex HTML or shortcodes. If you encounter any problems with translating a product, it is recommended that you contact the WooCommerce support team for assistance.

Once you have added the translation, you need to go back to the WordPress admin area and click on Products -> All Products. On this page, you will see your translated product listed under the “Translations” column.
