I changed the default language, mostly everything is ok but the translation of some items is not working. I am working with divi and translating the footer in the theme bulder is not working out, the translation direction now should be NL->EN but in the translation manager i see it is still EN->NL. i edited the footer and now i cannot translate it. i sent it to translation but i cannot see it anywhere in the jobs. it is very confusing now can you please help and ASAP this is a live environment and a shop.
I think i figured it out, situation was that default language is english secondary is dutch. initially i was translating english to dutch. I was under the impression that when changing the default language to Dutch i would be then translating Dutch to English but it seems not this behaviour stays the same i still need to make the pages in English and translate to Dutch, correct me If I am wrong please.
Yes, if you initially created the pages in English and translated them into Dutch then you should still translate the page from English to Dutch for the old trnalsations to work.
You can translate the page from Dutch to English as well but in that case, you will need to retranslate the full content of the page from Dutch to English.
For any new posts/content, it is advised to create them in the current default language and translate them to the secondary language though.
