stanislavK-12	Hi On my blog hidden link my default language is English, and then I use WPML to translate the posts automatically to 6 other languages. I have noticed that somehow new posts are created by themselves which contain only some numbers, and these new posts are only created in the other 6 languages(not in the default language) which makes me think that this can be some sort of bug in the wpml plugin, or something is misconfigured, I don't know what it is and would like to ask you for help with this please. Thank you

I suggest that you follow the steps below: 1. Update WPML and WPML addons (you use the older version) - IMPORTANT STEP! Create a backup of your website. - Go to "WordPress Dashboard > Plugins > Add new > Commercial (tab)". - Click the "Check for Updates" button. - Update WPML and its addons there. For more information: https://wpml.org/faq/install-wpml/#automated-updates 2. Test with a minimal installation. - IMPORTANT STEP! Test this on a copy/staging version of the website to avoid any disruption of a live website. - Switch to the default theme such as "TwentyTwenty" by going to "WordPress Dashboard > Appearance > themes". - Go to "WordPress Dashboard > Plugins" and deactivate all plugins except WPML and its add-ons. - Check if you can still recreate the issue. - If not, re-activate your plugins one by one and check the issue each time to find out the plugin that causes the problem. Thanks.
