Change Default Language – invalidate existing translations?
-
Hi. I’ve used the TranslatePress – Multilingual plug-in to translate my site into English. The default language is Chinese-Simplified. However, when I tried to change the default language into English, it says ‘Changing the default language will invalidate existing translations.’
1. Does that mean all the existing English translation will be gone?
2. If yes, will it auto translate all the post (Chinese-simplified) into English again?
3. After the default language is set to English, do I have to write all future posts in English, then translate them into Chinese? Or I can keep posting in Chinese and have them translated into English?Thanks.

Hi there,
Apologies, but we can’t help with your issue directly because we don’t host your site on our WordPress.com managed hosting.
To explain, we are a fully managed hosting provider and use a custom server environment that is optimized for WordPress, provides built-in security and performance improvements, as well as in-house support for your site questions.
Because of the way we’ve optimized our service, we also use a customized version of WordPress that is different (under the hood) from what you use at your current provider. As a result, we do not have access to your site and are not familiar with the source of your issue.
You definitely have the option to move your site to us so we can provide in-house help, but as it stands now, we cannot help since it is hosted elsewhere. The good news is that help is available here at the open-source WordPress forums: https://wordpress.org/support/forum/how-to-and-troubleshooting
The folks in that forum are more familiar with these kinds of issues and are in the best position to help. Thanks!
