Thanks for sharing. It looks like there's indeed a conflict.

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.

You will find the needed fields for this below the comment area when you log in to leave your next reply. The information you will enter is private which means only you and I can see and have access to it.

Maybe I'll need to replicate your site locally. For this, I’ll need to temporarily install a plugin called “Duplicator” or "All in One WP Migration" on your site. This will allow me to create a copy of your site and your content. Once the problem is resolved I will delete the local site. Let me know if this is ok with you.

IMPORTANT

- Please make a backup of site files and database before providing us access.
- If you do not see the wp-admin/FTP fields this means your post & website login details will be made PUBLIC. DO NOT post your website details unless you see the required wp-admin/FTP fields. If you do not, please ask me to enable the private box. The private box looks like this:

Hey there,

I got feedback from our devs. They were able to solve the issue by following these steps (make sure to have a full website backup before proceeding):

1. Go to the Dashboard > Templates > Theme Builder.
2. Open the Restaurants Cat Archive template.
3. Look for the Custom Query section, delete the "Restaurants Query Filters" and Save.
4. Go back to the Custom Query section and select "Restaurants Query Filter." and Save.
4. Go to WPML > Translation Management, search and select the "Restaurants Cat Archive" template, and send it to translation as a Duplicate (check image for reference);

That should solve the issue. Let me know.

in addition, the flag thai missing in the header, and if change to thai (can click from the Menu)
everything mess up and the templates deleted or something.
