mantasK-4	Background of the issue: I am trying to clean translated products that do not exist in the original language. Specifically, I have 374 products in Latvian that are translated and 309 products in Lietuvių, which is the original language. Symptoms: There is no specific issue, error, or unexpected behavior reported in the message. Questions: How can I clean translated products that do not exist in the original language?

You can remove the extra products from the translated language by following these steps: 1. Please take a full backup before making changes. 2. Go to Products >> All Products. 3. From Screen Options (top-right), enable the Languages column (Screenshot attached). 4. Switch to the secondary language using the admin language switcher. 5. Delete all products that show a plus (+) icon under the default language column, these have no original. 6. Finally, empty the trash. Here is a doc for more details: https://wpml.org/faq/how-to-delete-the-translation-of-a-page/ Please let me know how it goes. Thank you
