Background of the issue:
I translated all backend fixed fields in the WP Rentals Theme. After installing WPML, these fields are replaced with the translated version of a different language. The issue can be seen at hidden link.
Symptoms:
The backend fixed fields get replaced with the translated version of a different language, resulting in fields being either deleted or replaced by their language variant.
Questions:
Why are my backend fixed fields being replaced with a different language after installing WPML?
How can I ensure my default language is respected and not replaced?
Thank you for reaching out to WPML support. While one of my colleagues picks up this ticket, I’d like to provide some initial debugging steps and assist you right away.
I’ve checked your theme, WP Rentals, and confirmed that it is fully compatible with WPML as shown here: https://wpml.org/theme/wprentals/
Based on the documentation provided here: hidden link
please try searching for the custom field labels in WPML > String Translation. The fields you are referring to might already be registered there and available for translation.
Let me know how it goes or if you need further help.
Yes, all of them are translated. My problem is, my default language is English. All was/is setup in English. All is translated.
And now, for some reason WPML updated these backend values in options to German, Italian, Croatian... its a mix and match. I fix it back to english, after a day or so, it again gets changed
