Problem: You are trying to save the translation of a segment in the WPML editor, but the segment always saves as 'Draft', and the whole page translation cannot be saved. Solution: We recommend switching to the new version of the Advanced Translation Editor to ensure proper formatting and saving of the segment. Here are the steps to switch: 1. Open the translation editor. 2. Click on the gear icon at the top of the editor. 3. Enable the option 'Use new version of the Advanced Translation Editor.'
