Problem:
How to correctly convert my translation from using WP editor to ATE
Solution:
You would have to copy them one by one manually to insure a complete transition,

And keep in mind that you should never update/edit the translations using the page editor in second language, else, your translations will be lost.

Always use one method to translate and edit translations, in your case, I recommend sending the page for translation and edit it from ATE.

Hi,

When I convert from Wp editor to ATE. copy-paste. Means I have to copy - paste pharagraph by pharagraph or I can copy - paste the entire page ?

In the ATE translation even if I delete one word in some translation after publish. I have to retranslate all page of all languajes, translation become lost?

thanks,
