This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client is experiencing an issue where editing a job post in one language results in updates being saved across all language versions, leading to prolonged save times. They seeks a solution to save the job in the original language without automatically updating all the language versions immediately.
Solution:
We informed that due to the nature of WPML and its handling of duplicated posts, any updates to the original post would automatically sync with the duplicates. To manage this, the client can manually set the duplicates to 'Translate Independently' by clicking the Translate Independently button on the duplicate post in the secondary language. This action prevents automatic updates to the translated versions when the original is edited. Later, if needed, the translated versions can be updated manually by selecting the Overwrite with - option.
For detailed steps, please refer to the following documentation:
