martaA-10	Hello. When translating my pages/products through WPML advanced translator from default language (Italian) to English, I cannot find the fields for the Yoast Premium SEO attributes, such as, for example, related keywords and synonyms. While I can easily translate the basic Yoast SEO attributes (SEO title, description, main keywords). The screenshot here attached show: 1) the Italian homepage set-up for SEO, including related keyword and synonym; 2) the translation editor, not showing additional attributes translation fields but only the basic ones. Can you please help me? I already spoke with Yoast Premium SEO assistance but there's nothing wrong from their side. They said I should easily see the field for _yoast_wpseo_focuskeywords (Related Keyphrases) and _yoast_wpseo_keywordsynonyms (Synonyms) while I don't. Thanks for your support. Marta

martaA-10	Hello Osama. Following your instructions, I was able to sort it out and translate the fields I was looking for. Thanks a lot for your support. I am now wondering: is this also affecting the Yoast SEO lights for translated pages? As you can see from the screenshot here attached, some translated pages are not showing any score for the Yoast SEO settings (highlighted with red circle), while other do (highlighted with green circle). Thanks once more. Marta
