 * admin_texts_astra-settings strings are mixed up with translated content.
 * wpml suggested [this fix](https://wpml.org/errata/astra-theme-text-coming-from-wp_options-is-overwritten-with-translated-content/)
   but please fix from plugin side directly! After each update of the plugin it 
   will get deleted!!

 * Hi [@kenteush29](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kenteush29/),
 * I checked the thread link you shared but it seems quite old. It would be helpful
   if you can share more details so that we can check the issue with the current
   configurations from our end as well.
 * Kind regards,
    Aradhy😊

 * The issue is actual, and the fix too.
 * It concerns the admin_texts_astra-settings strings. They are automaticaly replaced
   with translations from WPML. These are the text included in theme customizer.

 * Hi [@kenteush29](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kenteush29/),
 * Thank you for the details!
 * To clarify, the root of this issue is due to the way WPML handles serialized 
   option values. Specifically, it filters the get_option() call without an explicit
   request, which can inadvertently alter theme settings.
 * That said, while this behavior originates from WPML, we do agree that implementing
   a safeguard on our side could help prevent unexpected behavior and improve overall
   compatibility.
 * We cannot directly include the exact workaround code provided by WPML into our
   theme’s core, but we are actively looking into the possibility of a safer solution
   from our end. This kind of task falls under our compatibility improvements, which
   are prioritized based on the number of requests we receive.
 * While we can’t promise immediate changes, we truly appreciate your feedback and
   have noted your request. In the meantime, we recommend applying the workaround
   only if you’re comfortable doing so and have a full site backup in place.
 * Thanks again for bringing this to our attention!
 * Kind regards,
    Aradhy 😊
