muhammed Muneer	Background of the issue: I am trying to translate the 'what's new' page using WPML. Some of the words are merged together in the translated pages. I have manually fixed these a few times, but the issue reappears when I make any changes in the base language and translate again. Here is the screenshot of the issue in translated pages: hidden link. The issue can be seen on the screenshot Symptoms: Some of the words don't have proper white spaces after translation, causing them to merge together. Questions: How can I prevent words from merging together in translated pages? Why does the issue reappear after making changes in the base language?

muhammed Muneer	hello! thank you for your patience. after a long loading time, i was able to add sample text from my site to the sandbox. however, i noticed that the translations aren’t displaying correctly - instead of translating, the text simply has an "es" prefix added to the english strings in spanish. as a result, i couldn’t replicate the original issue in the sandbox environment hidden link

Dražen Duvnjak Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Europe/Zagreb (GMT+01:00)	Hello, I am afraid I can not share any timeline, it is not something we can guarantee. It will take a day or two before we have any update, and I will share when I have any workaround with you. Regards, Drazen
