 * Hi,
 * I’m working on a website (mithiinicottages.com). I use Page Builder by SiteOrigin.
   Default language is English. I want also a page in Dutch (Nederlands).
 * I installed qTranslate-X. Default language is English. Added Dutch. Looking good.
 * When I work on the page, I see tabs for [English] and [Nederlands]. So far, so
   good. Under the [English] tab, I have entered the text in English. Still looking
   good. After finishing the English version, I click on tab [Nederlands], where
   I find all the same text in English and I start translating into Dutch. I save
   and update: now the only text shown is in Dutch. I check the [English] tab: the
   text is now all in Dutch.
 * When I look at the menu [Pages], it told me at first under [Languages] “Languages
   are not set”. I activated the Language Chooser in the menu. Now it tells me “
   English, Unknown Language (Not enabled)”. When I look in the menu [Settings] 
   under [Languages], “Nederlands” is clearly selected and activated.
 * I’m at a loss here; how do I make this work??
 * Thanks in advance for your help.
 * Theo

 * Never mind, folks. I’ve managed to solve the issue, although I have no idea how
   I did that.

 * Hello,
 * I’m facing the same issue like yours. When I save post, only English content 
   can be saved and text in my default Language disappeared. do you solve this issue?

 * Hi,
 * Same problem here, this feature used to work for me but now any change in any
   language affects the other language text fields…
 * I have not been able to fix this problem, but a temporary solution is to change
   the settings of the plugin so it is possible to change the way to enter the text
   in all the languages:
 * Settings > Languages > Advanced >
    Under “Editor Mode” switch from “Use Language
   Switching Buttons (LSB)” to “Editor Raw Mode”.
 * Instead of having two tabs (for two languages) in the page editor, you will have
   only one page and you will have to enter the text in the field as:
    [:en]Homepage[:
   fr]Page d’accueil (for English/French translation)
 * This method is working for me…
 * I hope it helps until a solution is found to this problem!!
