We’ve found out that the Search & Filter Pro plugin is causing issues in the admin area when creating a custom post type in a language that isn’t the primary language of the site.

We have a website in three languages – English (primary), German, and Arabic. There’s a CPT called People. In WPML, we set it up so that the admin area is always in English. However, when creating a new People post in either Arabic or German, the admin area gets translated and the layout also switches to RTL for the Arabic language (this isn’t the case for the default Posts and Pages).

With the help of WPML support, we’ve found out that the problem occurs when the Search & Filter plugin is active.

The issue seems to be triggered only when the post-new.php is loaded (i.e. when creating a new post the usual way through People -> Add New, or when translating an already existing post with the WPML “+” button). It doesn’t happen when we duplicate an already existing post (and post.php is loaded).

Could you, please, look into this issue?
Thank you!
