ronaldT-5	Background of the issue: I am trying to review the translated texts and check the SEO of the translated page using Yoast SEO. The issue can be seen at hidden link. Also, when trying to log in to home-alarm.ca/wp-admin, often times it reverts to alarme-maison.ca/wp-admin to which the credentials do not work. I have to clear the browser cache every single time to gain access to the dashboard. This problem comes up after trying to edit any of the translated pages. Here the debug info off the host server: [09-Jan-2025 16:38:32 UTC] PHP Deprecated: rtrim(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string) of type string is deprecated in /home/customer/www/home-alarm.ca/public_html/wp-includes/formatting.php on line 2819 [09-Jan-2025 16:39:56 UTC] PHP Deprecated: rtrim(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string) of type string is deprecated in /home/customer/www/home-alarm.ca/public_html/wp-includes/formatting.php on line 2819 Symptoms: I am unable to edit the translated page and am being requested to load with Safe Mode. Yoast SEO does not show up in Safe Mode. I received a Safe Mode warning and this error: Deprecated: rtrim(): Passing null to parameter #1 ($string) of type string is deprecated in /home/customer/www/home-alarm.ca/public_html/wp-includes/formatting.php on line 2819. Questions: Why am I being requested to load the page with Safe Mode? How can I make Yoast SEO appear in Safe Mode? What does the deprecated error message mean and how can I fix it?

ronaldT-5	Elementor is looking into it as we speak, but still no outcome yet.

ronaldT-5	I was told that Elementor editor cannot open WPML translated pages. And I think not only should Elementor be able to open the translated pages, but allow for editing directly into Elementor, and WPML should thereby update its database accordingly without having to edit existing translations within the ATE. -------------------------- REPLY FROM ELEMENTOR ----------------------------------- But Elementor can only edit pages created using Elementor itself. The translated pages are generated by WPML and they using different structure which Elementor does not understand. This would a a feature request suggestion you can raise with WPML but then again they have to be compatible with the normal pages as well, which do not use builder. I would recommend you to raise a feature request with WPML for a possibility in the future.

ronaldT-5	Well, I did a restore on my Mac to an earlier date via my backups. Two questions: 1) Why is your WordPress showing up in French? Mine is showing up in English. 2) The issue is very much alive for me. I'm using Chrome for Mac. See the attachment.

Kor Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Singapore (GMT+08:00)	Thanks for your reply. 1. It's the language option in my profile. I did not adjust it. I don't think it has anything to do with this. 2. Try clearing your Chrome browser cache and see if it works for you. I've tested it a couple of times and it worked for me.
