Overview of the issue

When you use WP Offload Media together with WPML Media Translation, replacing a translated image may generate an incorrect S3 file path. This issue occurs when a translated image is replaced after the original translation was uploaded in a different month or year.

Workaround

Please, make sure of having a full site backup of your site before proceeding.

Option 1

Go to the Media Library, use the “Remove from Bucket” option and manually replace it with a new image.

Option 2

Alternatively, you can try the following but you may end with orphaned objects in the bucket:

Open …/amazon-s3-and-cloudfront-pro/classes/pro/integrations/wpml.php

Replace:

	public function setup() {
		add_action( 'wpml_media_create_duplicate_attachment', array( $this, 'duplicate_offloaded_item' ), 10, 2 );
	}

With:

	public function setup() {
		add_action( 'wpml_media_create_duplicate_attachment', array( $this, 'duplicate_offloaded_item' ), 10, 2 );
		add_action( 'wpml_updated_attached_file', array( $this, 'delete_offloaded_item_on_media_replace' ), 10, 3 );
	}

	public function delete_offloaded_item_on_media_replace( $attachment_id, $file, $language ) {
		$as3cf_item = Media_Library_Item::get_by_source_id( $attachment_id );

		if ( $as3cf_item ) {
			$as3cf_item->delete();
		}
	}
