Overview of the issue

When using WPML with the Flatsome theme and translating pages manually (using the native WordPress editor method), any changes made in the default language overwrite the translations. This issue occurs specifically when the UX Builder is used to edit the content.

Workaround

Please, make sure of having a full site backup of your site before proceeding.


  • Open your theme’s functions.php file.

  • Add the following snippet:
    add_filter( 'wpml_pb_is_editing_translation_with_native_editor', function( $isTranslationWithNativeEditor ) {
        if ( isset( $_POST['action'] ) && 'ux_builder_save' === $_POST['action'] ) {
            return true;
        }
    
        return $isTranslationWithNativeEditor;
    } );
