the language switcher top right is EN (english) and DE (german) - when you click DE it now switches the order of the two languages and the display goes a bit odd. i don't know if this relates to a new version of WPML - we didn't previously have this issue. any suggestions please? (i went through the settings but couldn't find anything. except... i tried "Language switcher options > Backwards compatibility" but that didn't make any different.

thanks

Hi there.

Our developers are aware of this issue and it will be fixed in a future update.

Until then, there's a workaround available here:
https://wpml.org/errata/wpml-4-5-12-language-switcher-listing-change-order-when-switching-language/

Please let me know if that fixes this issue for you.

Kind regards,
Mihai Apetrei
