Background of the issue:
I create my content in English first as my main language with a post from the back end. Then I edit my template from the front end using DIVI. Entering everything in boxes from the back end is way longer. Once my content is there, I use the translation editor.
Symptoms:
The translation editor does not reflect all of what I did on the front end. After making the translation, it was missing translation for phone and tablet randomly. I had to correct all from the front end.
Questions:
What is the right procedure to create and translate content using WPML and DIVI?
Why is the translation editor not reflecting all of my front-end edits?
Why are translations missing for phone and tablet even after using the translation editor?
This guide is not about translating a post in DIVI, the description provide in my thread is from previous chat history.
The issue explained is exactly how it happened, the translations (especially phone, tablet) done in the editor are saved randomly when editing from the front side.
Here is the link below to describe the process, I didn't click save at the bottom of the translation editor page in this case as obvious, so after this process, what is saved in the editor doesn't reflect especially in phone and tablet view.
You are using WPML's Classic Translation Editor. You must 100% complete the translation for them to show on the translated page. At the end of your video, it is possible to see that the translation is still in progress. It is possible to see it by the gear icon. The pencil icon must show. So, you must check all the checkboxes under each string to make the translation 100% completed. Please read our Classic Translation Editor editor guide here.
As mentioned, I did not complete the process as the video would have take too long.
The issue is: You have to open the DIVI Back end first to create the post in the original language. Then you import your layout and will create the the content from the front end (back end would take too long)
When the content is saved, then you go to the back end, use the translation editor and do 100% for desktop, tablet, mobile and save.
What I say is that after this process, the translations mainly in tablet and phone are not saved.
