Background of the issue:
I am trying to set my admin language to English and WPML edit language to admin language, but I am facing issues with backend strings appearing in the translated language. Additionally, I am experiencing problems with Gravity Forms shortcode and Beaver Builder saved module translation. Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link

Symptoms:
Backend strings are displayed in the translated language instead of English. Gravity Forms shortcode is being translated incorrectly, causing the system to not understand commands. When translating a Beaver Builder saved module, the language page is not found.

Questions:
Can I send you a login link?
Please advise on how to resolve these issues asap.

Hi,

We focus on one issue per ticket in our technical support forum. Otherwise, tickets can get cluttered and confusing for both users and supporters. I'll answer your first question now, but if you need further help, please focus on the most pressing issue and open new tickets for the other issues.

When selecting the option "Set admin language as editing language" on the profile page, the expected behavior is exactly what you show in your screenshots. This means that if you select to edit the content in Arabic, the direction will change to Right-to-Left, and the text will be in Arabic. We explain it in our guide here.

Itamar.
