Tell us what you are trying to do?
I am trying to change my pages to Arabic (RTL) for the Arabic interface, after I did the configuration via the Translate management I still see my pages in English for example: hidden link
Is there any documentation that you are following?
Yes I did
Is there a similar example that we can see?
Unfortunately, I don't have one
What is the link to your site?

I attached the screenshot for the place I am trying to get my page in Arabic...
Before this ticket gets assigned to my colleagues, I will try to help.
While WPML lets you easily translate your content into RTL languages, it doesn’t control the RTL layout of your theme. The display of right-to-left content is determined by the CSS rules of your WordPress theme.
We have some amazing documentation available below that explains things in a bit more depth:
I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to express my gratitude for your ongoing efforts in assisting with my website.
I'd like to bring to your attention an issue I've encountered regarding the language switcher functionality, specifically with sub-pages. While the main page language switcher works correctly, allowing users to view content in Arabic upon switching, the problem arises when navigating to sub-pages.
Upon selecting the Arabic language option within a sub-page, the interface switches back to English, rather than remaining in Arabic as expected. Additionally, although the content displays correctly in Arabic, the interface itself remains in English.
To provide further clarity, I've attached a screenshot highlighting the specific item in question within the Arabic interface.
Could you kindly investigate this matter and guide how to ensure that sub-pages seamlessly transition from left-to-right (LTR) to right-to-left (RTL) languages, with the interface displaying the corresponding language accordingly?
Your assistance in resolving this issue is greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Arabic Interface: hidden link
Englis Interface: hidden link
Issue as an example: hidden link
The URL here (hidden link) sends to a 404 error page (I am attaching a screenshot below). Can you please check on that?
By mentioning that the interface is not switching to AR, do you mean that in the screenshot that you attached, there should be no "(PMP)" for example?
Also, the issue where the language is not switched correctly when using the language switcher is a different issue.

OK let's keep this open ticket for the first issue of The URL here (hidden link) sends to a 404 error page (I am attaching a screenshot below).
The issue is that when I add the Arabic Language as shown in the screenshot and try to find the page in the Arabic interface, it shows the 404 error while the page exists in the English interface for the same page that shows a 404 error in Arabic Interface.

Our Debugging Procedures
I will be checking various settings in the backend to see if the issue can be resolved. Although I won't be making changes that affect the live site, it is still good practice to backup the site before providing us access. In the event that we do need to debug the site further, I will duplicate the site and work in a separate, local development environment to avoid affecting the live site.
- Please make a backup of the site files and database before providing us access.
- If you do not see the wp-admin/FTP fields this means your post & website login details will be made PUBLIC. DO NOT post your website details unless you see the required wp-admin/FTP fields. If you do not, please ask me to enable the private box.
The private box looks like this: hidden link
I will be waiting for your response.
