Background of the issue:
I am trying to translate a blog page using WPML. The blog posts primarily contain YouTube video links.
Now the main header video is missing

Symptoms:
After translating the blog page, the blog YouTube video links are not appearing.

Questions:
Why are the YouTube video links missing after translation?
How can I ensure that the blog text and videos appear correctly after translation?

Hello,

At WPML > Settings > Custom Field Translation please search for a field that refers to the Video ID and set the field to "Copy".

Now apply the translation of your page again.

Best regards
Andreas

Thanks for contacting WPML forums support. I'll be glad to help you today.

1) Would you please elaborate more on the issue to help me understand it better?

It would be very helpful if you could share screenshots or a screen-recorded video while reproducing the issue.

2) Could you please share your Debug information with me?
You can read a detailed explanation about it here. (http://wpml.org/faq/provide-debug-information-faster-support)
