Problem:
You have a bilingual site in English and Arabic, with English as the default language. While creating posts in Arabic, you want the taxonomies to display in English in the backend, but they currently appear in Arabic.
Solution:
We currently do not support changing the backend language for taxonomy terms while maintaining different front-end translations directly through WPML settings. However, you can achieve this by implementing a custom filter in your theme's functions.php file. Here is a sample code you might consider:

add_filter('get_terms', function($terms, $taxonomies, $args, $term_query) {<br />    if (is_admin() && in_array('person_type', $taxonomies)) {<br />        foreach ($terms as $term) {<br />            $term->name = get_english_version($term->term_id);<br />        }<br />    }<br />    return $terms;<br />}, 10, 4);

This code checks if you are in the admin area and modifies the term names to their English versions for specific taxonomies. Note that you might need to define the function

get_english_version

to fetch the English names based on term IDs. For further customization, you may consider hiring a developer from our contractors' page.
