Number Nine	In a test website built on Avada, I need to switch the language of an entry in Taxonomy Translation > Section Category. Each entry corresponds to an 'Avada Layout'. The current situation is: 'content' is in the basic language 'footer' is in the second language 'header' is in the basic language 'page_title_bar' is in the basic language The Footer layout appears in the second language, and when I create a new 'Avada Layout Section', it is assigned to the second language. I need to bring it back to the first language. The 'footer' layout is appearing in the second language, and new 'Avada Layout Sections' are being assigned to the second language instead of the basic language. How can I change the language of 'footer' to the basic language in your Taxonomy Translation section?

Number Nine	Hello Osama, thank you for your reply. Unfortunately your solution cannot be applied: Avada Layout and Avada Layout Sections cannot be accessed as categories, tags or attributes. I managed to solve the question by manually editing the wp_icl_translations table, although that was no easy and quick task. The reason of this situation was probably my fault: I probably created the first Layout / Layout Section in the "seocond" language and this could not be reverted, as the language switching feature is not available in such elements. The situation is not common, but it is certainly difficult to solve and time consuming, and you need to backup your database before manipulating the raw database data through PhpMyAdmin. If you replicate the issue you will understand what I mean. Thank you.
