This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
You are trying to set the order of product attributes on WooCommerce product pages to match the original language, but the order is reversed on translated pages.
Solution:
We recommend that you go to the WooCommerce backend under Products → Attributes. Here, you can drag and drop to set the correct order of attributes in the default language. After adjusting the order, please check if the translated product pages now reflect the correct order.

If this solution does not resolve your issue, or if it seems outdated or irrelevant to your case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If you still need assistance, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.

Background of the issue:
I am trying to set the order of product attributes on WooCommerce product pages. The issue can be seen on this page: hidden link. I expected the size attribute to be ordered as S/M, then M/L, like on the original language page: hidden link.

Symptoms:
The order of the size attribute is reversed.

Questions:
How can I set the order of product attributes on translated product pages to match the original language?

Hi there,

The order of the attributes will follow the order set in the backend area for the attribute within Products → Attributes.

Please go to Products → Attributes and Drag/drop the correct order in the default language.

Once that is finished, review and let us know your results, please.

The order of the attributes were set on the default language, but changing the order did fix the order on the secondary language! Thank you.
