Background of the issue:
I have enabled automatic translation on my site hidden link using WPML. I am trying to ensure that the design of the templates remains consistent upon translation.

Symptoms:
All translated pages have more space around the header area, and they have each pulled the Titles of pages, which I had to hide with CSS rules.

Questions:
How can I ensure all pages follow same structure when translated and nothing differs in design.

Also the breadcrumbs seems to be missing on all pages translated.

Hi,

Thank you for contacting the support.

As per your debug information, I'm not sure if you're using any page builder or using theme's own design approach. However, this issue usually happens when style or design isn't synced well.

You can try the following method to check if this is the case:

- Go to WPML -> Settings -> Custom Fields Translation.
- Click "show system fields" and wait for the page to reload.
- Search for css or style.
- See if any field relating to these appear and refer to your theme?
- If it appears, set it to "translatable" and save.
- After that, go to your content or design and open for editing in the default language.
- Make a little change like a word or dot and save.
- Update the translation.
- Clear all caches and check again.

Usually this solves such design issues.

Please let me know and I'll try my best to help you further on the matter.

Regards.

P.S.: I'll be off for the weekend and 'll be able to attend on Monday.
