Hello,

Do you mean that you created a duplicate with WPML?

It is expected that duplicates can get edited, as it seems that we can not prevent this.

Only take note, that a duplicate in WPML will always get overwritten once the original content is getting updated.

Best regards

Hi there.

Before this ticket gets assigned to one of my colleagues, I will try to help.

After you duplicate the page into BG, you should be able to switch the language at the top to BG (while you are still in the WordPress backend) > then go to "Pages" > then hover your mouse over the "translation" and select "Edit with Elementor".

If that still doesn't work, can you please let us know if you see any error message or can you please elaborate more on what you mean by "can't edit the duplicate"?

Please let us know how things go.

Mihai

Hello Mihai,

What happens is that when I change the language from the top bar, and then go to pages - Edit with Elementor, I get redirected to log in again and then Elementor doesn't want to load.

Hi there.

Can you please let us know if you were also able to try the "Safe" mode as it is mentioned in the notification from the bottom-right area?

Please let us know and if yes, are there any updates on the result?

We will be waiting for your response.

Hi Simeon,

Thank you for contacting WPML support, I’m happy to help you with this issue.

Please try to go to WPML > Languages > Language URL Format > Enable option "Auto sign-in and sign-out users from all domains" > Logout and re-login again and see if it helps.

While checking the debug info, I see that the WordPress Memory Limit is below the requirements. The minimum requirements are 128M, but we do recommend 256M and the debug information of your site shows it set to 40M. Please check this link for more details
https://wpml.org/home/minimum-requirements/.
You can increase it by adding the following code in your wp-config.php file, right before the /* That’s all, stop editing! Happy publishing. */ line:

define( 'WP_MAX_MEMORY_LIMIT', '256M' );
define( 'WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '128M' );

After adding the code you can confirm that the memory was changed correctly from WPML > Support > WordPress > Memory limit.

Looking forward to your reply.
Thanks
