 * Using two languages at posts. When editing in the second language tab, it switches
   back to the first language tab while pressing save/publish. This leads to saving
   the content of the first tab to the second.
    When I switch back to the first 
   tab and then press publish, it works.

 * with just one textbox per language it works (visually the tab still swiches but
   saves the correct language).
    I just used a saved template on the first tab and
   it happend again. feels like there is an issue when there is too many content(
   Textblocks, Imageblocks , Shortcodes). I keep testing!

 * Maybe some element (from WPBakery library) in editor breaks correct work.
    Now
   I know one issue with WPBakery element. If I add source text to second tab with
   video in iframe then text will be reset after clicking save post. To fix it I
   have changed block from text editor with iframe to video with link to video hosting.
   And text was saved as expected.

 * Ok – found the error.
    It’s happening when using the wordpress gallery shortcode.

 * What gallery shortcode do you mean?
    Please share with me the example of code
   for default language, for extra language.

 * when using this in the first tab: `[gallery ids="349,109,99" link="file" type
   ="default" caption="default" masonry="default" width="" height=""]`
 * the second tab is saving the content from the first tab. no matter what’s in 
   the second tab (empty or just a textblock …)

 * Yes. Is there another way I can create a wordpress gallery-shortcode in another
   page builder block?

 * ok without any shortcodes it worked until now.
    but it just overwrote my first
   tab with the second tab content… all I did was correcting some text in both languages…
 * now all my layouting, textediting and settings from my main languages of the 
   page is gone -.-

 * … went back when reloading the backend. very buggy system 🙁
    feels like I allways
   have to manually switch to the first tab before saving to avoid those “sometimes
   it works, sometimes not”-bugs.

 * I have the same problem, when switching languages ​​and saving the content of
   another language flies, in the classic editor (in wordpress code) everything 
   is saved. But it really hurts that I can not edit the page in different languages​​
   in different languages ​​without switching to the standard wordpress editor.

 * [@designconnection](https://wordpress.org/support/users/designconnection/) I 
   have exactly the same problem.
 * Any answer or new release that solve this bug?
