edwardB-17	Background of the issue: I’m trying to translate blogs using WPML, but the translation window keeps loading and says it will take a moment. This issue occurs every time an update is launched and installed. Symptoms: The translation window keeps loading indefinitely, indicating it will take a moment. This issue is recurring with each update. Questions: Can you fix the issue on your server?

edwardB-17	I found the problem myself. There was an ampersand (&) in the title of the newly written blog. That completely breaks WPML.
