This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client needs to change the original language displayed in the WPML Advanced Translation Editor for a translator who does not speak the original language of the content. The content was initially in French, and the translator needs to see English on the left side instead of French when translating to Arabic.
Solution:
We explained that it is not possible to change the language displayed on the left side in the Advanced Translation Editor. This side always shows the default language in which the page was initially created. If you're experiencing this issue and need the translator to view a different source language, unfortunately, this cannot be adjusted for translations already done. For new translations, ensure the translator's settings are correctly set to translate from the desired source language.
If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. Should you need further assistance, please do not hesitate to open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.
