This will allow us to see if any PHP errors are being produced. More Info: https://codex.wordpress.org/Debugging_in_WordPress Edit wp-config.php and insert the following lines: define( 'WP_DEBUG', true ); define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true ); define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false ); Browse to the page with the issue and/or reproduce the issue.

Carlos Rojas WPML Supporter since 03/2017 Languages: English (English ) Spanish (Español ) Timezone: Europe/Madrid (GMT+02:00)	Hello, Thank you for sharing the error message. I kindly ask you to follow these steps in order to isolate the cause of the issue: - Create a full backup of the site - Update any outdated plugins or themes - Flush any cache memory that might exists - Deactivate all plugins, except the WPML ones - Activate a default WordPress theme, like Twenty Twenty - If the issue disappeared, start by activating the theme and then the plugins, one by one, until the issue appears again and you find the culprit. Could you tell me the results of the steps described above? Regards, Carlos

nicoS-9	The issue is in a function that gets all pages from all functions. We save the current language and after processing we set the language back to normal. $current_lang = apply_filters( 'wpml_current_language', NULL ); $languages = apply_filters( 'wpml_active_languages', NULL, array( 'skip_missing' => 0)); foreach( (array) $languages as $lang ) { do_action( 'wpml_switch_language', $lang['code'] ); /* building query */ $posts = new \WP_Query( [ 'sort_order' => 'ASC', 'sort_column' => 'post_title', 'post_type' => 'page', 'posts_per_page' => -1, 'post_status' => 'publish', ] ); // Processing fetched posts. } do_action( 'wpml_switch_language', $current_lang ); Do you have an idea why this code produces such an error? Any hints would be much appreciated

Carlos Rojas WPML Supporter since 03/2017 Languages: English (English ) Spanish (Español ) Timezone: Europe/Madrid (GMT+02:00)	Hello, Thank you for your message. In this case, you will need custom coding which falls outside of the scope of our support service. I would recommend you to contact one of our certified partners at this link: https://wpml.org/contractors/ they will be more than happy to help you. Regards, Carlos

nicoS-9	My issue is resolved now. We found the issue in our code. At one point during wp initialization we cycled through the available languages to get pages in all languages. Even when switching back to the previously selected language the settings page wouldn't open. We resolved the issue by altering our query.
