Background of the issue:
I am trying to add English translations to the glossary on my WordPress site using WPML. I have three languages active: Polish (native), German (already done), and English (active, to do, language is hidden). I previously added some terms in German to the glossary list.

Symptoms:
When attempting to add English terms to the existing glossary entries, I can only access the German term editor. There seems to be no option to edit or add English terms, perhaps because it's hidden but it need to be hidden until the whole translations are ready!

Questions:
Is there a way to add English terms to the existing glossary entries while Ebglish is HIDDEN language?

Hello there,

Can you try the following procedure to try to add the glossary items to the hidden language?

Under your site Dashboard, go to Users > Profile, Or you can go to Users > All users, Select a User to edit there you can set the "Display hidden languages" and save.

After that, please see if the language will be available for you in the glossary.

Thank you.
Mateus
