magdalenaW-5	Background of the issue: I am trying to translate products from English into Lithuanian, Latvian, and Estonian for a client. However, the site language is mistakenly set to Lithuanian (LT), and we received XLIFF files set as LT, but they contain English text. We started manually changing the language of the pages to English, but with 240 products, this is impractical. I need a way to bulk change the source language of all products in WPML. The issue can be seen at hidden link. Symptoms: The source language is set as LT everywhere, but only the main page has an LT version. We receive XLIFF files set as LT, but they contain English text. Questions: Is there a way to bulk change the source language of all products in WPML?

Kor WPML Supporter since 08/2022 Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Singapore (GMT+08:00)	Thank you for reaching out to WPML support. While one of my colleagues reviews your ticket, I’d like to offer some initial guidance to help you right away. To change the source language of your products, I recommend exporting them using the method described here: https://wpml.org/documentation/related-projects/wpml-export-and-import/#export-multilingual-content Once exported, you can make the necessary adjustments and then reimport the products back into your website. This is the most efficient way to change the source language of your products.
