This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
After installing WPML plugins, the WooCommerce default product page is not displayed correctly, with vertical text on the far right.
Solution:
If you're experiencing this issue, it's not caused by WPML or the WPML SEO plugin. The problem arises because the product table has many columns, which reduces the space for text, causing it to appear vertically. To resolve this, you can hide the unnecessary columns by using the "Screen Options" at the top right corner of the page.

After installing the plugins from the WPML Suite, the default WooCommerce product page is not displayed correctly anymore. Please see the screenshot. There is vertical text on the far right, making the page unusable in terms of usability.

I tried deactivating the WPML SEO plugin because the vertical text appears in that area. However, that did not change anything

Hi Bruno,
Thanks for contacting WPML support.

This is not an issue with WPML or the WPML SEO plugin, the product table includes many columns that reduce the space of text which makes it appear vertically.

You can hide the unnecessary columns from the "Screen Options" at the top right corner to fix this issue.

Kind regards,
Mohamed

Hi Mohamed,

You are right, it's not a bug and after changing the screen options everything is well again.

But I'm pretty sure, the columns have changed after the installation of the suite, because before was it default.

Thank you
