Thank you very much! The issue has been resolved! However, when I changed the default language in the backend back to Traditional Chinese, I encountered the same issue again. On some pages, the language setting at the top and the displayed language are reversed (the language setting at the top shows English, while the backend page displays Chinese, and vice versa). Example of the error page:hidden link Please Bob Support to help me resolve this issue. If possible, I would also appreciate a screen recording of the process to fix it. Once again, thank you so much for your assistance, Bob Support! |

Hi there, What are your results if you go to your profile -> edit your profile and select "English" or "Chinese" for example then update? Also, what are your results if you switch to Blocksy (not the child theme) or Storefront as a test, does the issue persist? |

Currently, the language under Profile → Your Profile is set to Traditional Chinese, but the admin interface still displays in English.(img 1-1, img 1-2) |

If possible you should avoid at all costs changing the **Default** language in WPML->Language. Doing that can cause issues so I'd only do this if you are planning on creating content on the other langauge and the changes needs to happen. What controls the backend language is the USER profile language ---> the area where it's controlled by wp.com when I do a test on my staging site it works well because i can control that from my side. What are your results if you choose in the user profile setting "set admin language as editing language" |

Yes, I have never changed the default language in WPML -> Language — it has always been set to Traditional Chinese. In the USER profile language settings (wp.com), it is correctly set to Traditional Chinese, as shown in the attached image (img 1-1). I have already selected “set admin language as editing language,” but it doesn’t seem to work. When I select English in the top bar, the page below does not switch to Chinese. However, when I select Chinese in the top bar, the page below still remains in English. New threads created by Bobby and linked to this one are listed below: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/split-wc-dates-are-not-translating/ |

Would it be possible to allow me to access the USER Edit profile? You might need to give me a standard access username / password and not via the access link with a temporary login. Also, if you have FTP access details please share those with me as well. |

Thank you, It looks like it's working as expected now, if I am using CN it shows CN and same for EN without mixing them. I did not make any changes, however today I was able to force the site to re run the .mo files (this controls the backend language) which are pulled from WordPress. If the issue with the inverted language is resolved, let's split this format issue into it's own as I am not able to see the reason this is happening after reviewing it and will need to escalate. |

Yes, I did see a prompt about loading the .mo files when I opened WPML. Alright, the language inversion issue has indeed been resolved. |

You can trigger the .mo file pop up via WPML->Support->Troubleshooting there is a button at the end of the page asking you to trigger the .mo file regeneration box. |
