I want to publish a translated page with slighty different text content.

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The client is trying to publish a webpage with slightly different text content in the translation.

Solution:
If it needs a different structure for the translation, you can switch to the WordPress Editor to complete the translation without using the WPML translation editor. It's important to note that the two editors are not synchronized, so if the you switch to the WordPress Editor, you will need to retranslate the page. More information can be found here: Using different translation editors for different pages.

Sometimes screenshots illustrating what you mean may go a long way to clarify what words fail to transmit so if you like make use of "upload an image" below the comment area.

Andrey Supporter Languages: English (English ) Russian (Русский ) Timezone: Europe/Kyiv (GMT+02:00)	Thank you for your feedback. In order to complete the translation, it is necessary to fill out all of the rows. If you prefer a different structure for the translation, you can switch to the WordPress Editor and complete the translation without using the WPML translation editor. For further information, please visit https://wpml.org/documentation/translating-your-contents/using-different-translation-editors-for-different-pages/. I want to let you know that the two editors are not synchronized. Therefore, you will need to retranslate this page using the WordPress Editor.
