As requested I've placed the file on the requested location and have tested again. I can say that we are almost there, currently everything seems to work for custom post types but not yet for the default post type.
I have enabled all other plugins again as I need those in order to create a test content item to test the integration. This wansn't possible due to inactive plugins causing errors to be thrown.
I've made sure to test with the plugins disabled as well and I'm seeing the same behavior for the default content item in that scenario.
The good news is that progress has been made and it seems to me that the developer(s) found the issue 🙌
Let me know if I need to do anything else or replace the file with a new one.
The developer asked me to do some more testing on your site, and I disabled the WPML plugins but that results in a fatal error arising from calls to WPML functions in your custom plugins which don't first check if the function exists.
As I don't have FTP access I'm stuck, as I cannot disable your custom plugins to be able to re-enable WPML, if you could please do that?
Once I'm in I'll be sure to disable your custom plugins before making any changes to which plugins are active.
As it works for the custom post types but not standard posts, this time I disabled all of the custom plugins so I could concentrate on the core functionality.
Logging in as the Finnish test user I couldn't see standard posts in the admin (that would be "Sivut", right?).
I went to check the WPML Group within the Access settings for Finnish posts and saw that there isn't one.
I'm not sure if it was deleted earlier in testing, it has been a while now, but in any case I created a new WPML Group for Finnish Posts and added the localfifi test user to that group so that they had all permissions.
And it works.
I re-activated all of the custom plugins and it still works.
Could you verify with some of the other languages which do have a WPML Group for Posts that they work?
Sorry for the delay, I was booked for some other projects and didn't found the time to do proper testing before today.
It was correct that the WPML Access group for Finnish posts wasn't available, I compared it to our staging & production env and it was available there. So this is probably being deleted during the testing process.
However when I test it right now it's not working yet. I saw that you are looking for "Sivut" in Finnish, but that is the "page" post type, not the "post" post type.
I've test this with a few other users (other languages) and I'm seeing the same behavior for all these accounts.
OK, I made progress with some testing on your site.
I managed to isolate the problem, which occurs when Yoast Premium is active. Disabling Yoast Premium should restore the visibility of the UI for editing standard Posts according to the Access settings for WPML Groups.
I can reproduce the problem on my own test site, and so I am now escalating that (with a copy of my test site) so the developers can try and identify the cause of the conflict.
I've replaced the file with your patch file, but the issue persists. I've done this on the environment you have access to so you can see it for your self.
Best regards
Joren
ps. after tomorrow I will be OOF until Januari 2th, so please expect a delay in my responses. Can you make sure this ticket stays open?
