Update Translation - Change to page properties are not translated when update

We have language copies of a site, all language copies are translated based on the english master site. Translation works fine when running for a new language copy, but once updating page properties ex. page description (jcr:description) the new text is not being translated/reflected on the existing language copy.

The description is being translated the first time as this property is defined in the translation_rules.xml, so this is failing only when updating an already existing language copy.

We are using the OOTB MS Translation connector to our own MS Translator API account.

Is that a known bug in AEM or is it a configuration somewhere we are missing?

Hi @hadriz

Can you please be more specific around wht you are using language copy or live copy, both are very different? Also, please mention the steps you are following to translate updated page.

translation_rules.xml is the only file to decide which properties are to be translated. Please specify steps and we can tell you better.

Thanks!

Hey @nupur_jain,

The project is configured to auotmatically promote Translation Lanuches and approve them. I check the list just in case and the pages are not there. I have tested to update text in some components within the page and that is being updated it is only the page properties that do not get updated. In our case it is the page description. The page description gets translated if I am created a translation for a new language and the language copy it is created for the first time. If I however update the description of the english page and run update translation then the description is not translated.

We have a work around for now to remove the language copy fully and rerun the translation but this is not going to work for the long term as we have 30+ languages and we cannot remove all of them everytime we need to update a page property.

Thanks for your help, it is much appreciated
