Dear WPML Support Team,

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to report a critical issue that I have encountered with WPML and the Yoast SEO plugin on my website.

I have noticed that the original meta descriptions and meta titles that were created in English using the Yoast SEO plugin have inexplicably switched to French. This is a significant problem for me as it affects the search engine optimization (SEO) of my website, potentially impacting its rankings.

I would appreciate your assistance in resolving this issue as quickly as possible. Could you please investigate why this language switch occurred and provide guidance on how to correct it? It's imperative that the meta descriptions and titles are displayed in their original English language to ensure the effectiveness of our SEO efforts.

I understand the importance of a swift resolution in order to minimize any negative impact on our website's performance. Your prompt attention to this matter would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your assistance, and I look forward to your response.

Hello!

You show me here a STRING containing that content when strings for content shouldn't be touched.

Can you tell me the value on the column "domain" that you see on String Translation when you check what you showed me in the screenshot?

i'm saying this because you'd have to check the revisions of the page where that string's coming from, since it looks like an updated version of the translation was made and is missing the yoast translation, which basically "reset" the translation to the original language.

Check it out and let me know how it goes.
