Parent product is visible again in translated language
You may find after updating a product or running the "Process Product Visibility" action that the parent products you've hidden from the catalog are now visible in the translated catalog pages.
This appears to be a bug with WPML, but it is possible to fix.
- Navigate to WooCommerce > WooCommerce Multilingual.
- Click Settings.
- Make sure Native WooCommerce product editing screen is checked under Product Translation Interface.
- Click Save.
- Go back to edit your variable product.
- Click to edit the translation.
- Now you can set the visibility for the translated product.
