Andreas W. WPML Supporter since 12/2018 Languages: English (English ) Spanish (Español ) German (Deutsch ) Timezone: America/Lima (GMT-05:00)	Hello, A Editor who is assigned as Translation Manager is able to create jobs at WPML > Translation Management > Dashboard and access them at WPML > Translations for translation. Only Admin users are allowed to edit translations on the backend. The user might need to capability manage_options to be able to edit translations on the backend, but this would further allow access to any other options in WordPress. Best regards Andreas

yuriiK-7	It would be great idea to somehow allow users who create a content also translate their own content in some easy way. If I missed this ability - please let me know how can I do that without adding each user as a translator and add all translation directions for each user. It is not very comfortable. Thank you!
