Background of the issue:
I am trying to save a layout in English or French on my site, hidden link, and I want it to appear in both languages. I have followed a previous chat to translate this but now I want to disable it.

Symptoms:
The Divi Library is not displaying the saved section on the English page.

Questions:
How can I disable the automatic translation of saved sections in WPML?

When saving divi layout french or english, I end up with them in both language. How can I disable the automatic translation of saved sections in WPML?

You will see when layout are saved in a specific language, they appear in both languages in divi library and don't appear when you recall them creating a page, any way to disable that translation feature for DIVI, Layout section would simplify or other solution. Thank you!

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. Please log in to this hidden link">sandbox site and try to replicate the issue.

Please let me know if the issue is replicable so I can check it and consult our compatibility team if needed.

Kindly note that this sandbox site has Divi and WPML installed.

Best regards,
Osama

Not applicable as the screenshots are explaining exactly the issue, which is related to translation, there is nothing I can create in that sandbox or video because I would have to import to many things, a previous agent solved part of this issue in my previous ticket, please review as all is in there. I thought it could be this: Post Types Translation section, locate the Divi Library post type (commonly labeled as et_pb_layout) but it's not there and theme builder is already set to not translatable but something is saving layouts and sections in both

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I would need to look closely at your site, so I would need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP)
Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated.

Your answer will be private, meaning only you and I can access it.

❌ Please back up your database and website ❌

✙ I need your permission to deactivate and reactivate the plugins and themes and change site configurations. This is also why the backup is critical.

✙ I also need your permission to take a local copy of your site to debug the issue without affecting your live site.

Best regards,
Osama

I figure it out finally, as sections are not appearing but not because of translations but from where you create the layout, all is good, thank you for following up!
