Problem: If you're experiencing issues where WPML automatically re-translates existing text every time you update something visual on the main page of your multilingual website, this can be frustrating, especially if the translations require human review to ensure accuracy. Solution: We recommend using the 'Minor edit - Don't update translation' checkbox in the WordPress Editor. Before you update your content, simply check this box in the right sidebar. This action prevents WPML from changing the translation status and re-translating the text. It's important to note that this option should only be used for minor adjustments that do not add new content. If new content is added, such as an image or a new section, you will need to update the translation accordingly. For situations where different layouts and designs are needed in different languages, consider using the 'WordPress Editor' as your translation method. You can find more details in our guide on using different translation editors for different pages: Using Different Translation Editors for Different Pages.
If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins.
