Hello,

Our editor complains that if he add or change a category for already translated post, it overwrites and adds the category also to the translated post. Is it possible to switch it off for some post? Or in general? Not to change categories if the translated post is already published and keep the change only to the default original language?

Thank you.

Hi there,

I will add the first reply before this ticket is assigned to one of my colleagues.

Would you please go to WordPress Dashboard > WPML > Settings and deactivate the option below?

Copy taxonomy to translations

But please consider that this ill stop the synching and that might cause problems later when the categories go out of sync.

Usually the categories should be the same between the languages.

Thanks.
