Hi,

We suspect a collision with the theme or another plugin might cause this problem. If possible, set up your site in a minimal environment, switching to a default WordPress theme like TwentyTwenty-Four and activating only WPML.

First, check if the problem persists when only the theme is switched to the Hello parent theme. If the issue persists, deactivate all plugins except WPML and its add-ons. Then, please check if the problem persists, or if it is now OK, and you can remove the English language.

**** Important! Please make a full site backup (files and DB) before you proceed with those steps****


*** If your site is live, you might want to try those procedures in a staging environment or a snapshot of your site on your local server or another server. ***

If you can't proceed with this, please allow me to take a copy of your site. For this, I must install a plugin like Duplicator or All In One Migration. Please let me know if you agree.

Regards,
Itamar.
