Whenever I change something on the German version of a page (just change a word), there is no longer an English and Italian version. These are then only displayed in German and are also directly in WordPress only available in German, even if I go to the Italian or English version. I have created the multilingualism with WPML. Now you can see the problem on the "home" site of my website. They were translated before. I have translated and inserted them myself. But whenever I change something in the German version, the other versions (the Italian and English) of the page also become German. I noticed this problem only yesterday. I send you a video screen recording where I explain everything. hidden link If you like, I can reset the website to the backup from yesterday, so you can try it by yourself. Look first: the homesite is english when you click on the english button, italian when you click on the italian version. Now try to edit the german version, even only change one letter and the english and italian versions get lost and there is only the german version anymore, even if you click on english / italian.

Thank you very very much!
Is it necessary to have WPML and my version to translate the Page with the WordPress editor or is it possibile without / or with the cheaper version of WPML?
kind regards,
Lukas
It depends on your requirements now and future. If you only want to use the WordPress editor, you can use the Multilingual Blog license, please read more here https://wpml.org/purchase/
Hello, now I did what you told me, but it does not let me click on the the linguage in duplicate document with the wordpress editor. I have made a screenrecording to explain. hidden link
Please scroll the page from the top to the bottom if there is any popup and close it then duplicate the page again.
If it still does not help, I would like to request temporary access (wp-admin and FTP) to your site to take a better look at the issue. It would be better to a testing site where the issue is replicated. Your next reply is set to private to share the info.
❌ IMPORTANT: Please backup your database and website before proceeding ❌
You can use this plugin to create the backup: https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/
✙ I would need your permission to de-activate and re-activate Plugins and the Theme and to change configurations on the site if needed. This is also a reason the backup is critical.
Good day!
Thank you very much! I have already solved the problem.
Now I can duplicate the pages, but even if I duplicate them with the WordPress editor to translate them myself, I have the problem from before again. If I have translated the pages and then change something in the original German version, the Italian and English version is suddenly also in German. So the Italian / English texts have been replaced by German ones.
Then it still does not work, please share your site credentials. Your next reply is set to private to share the info.

After duplicating the translation in a second language (En, It), you need to edit the translation in the It language and click on the button "Translate Independently", make the changes and update the page. Please check this screenshot hidden link
