Features
- Module 1 — Orphan Translations: finds translated posts whose original has been deleted or moved to trash
- Module 2 — Misplaced Originals: finds posts WPML treats as originals but that are assigned to the wrong language
- Module 3 — Orphan Originals: detects a translation incorrectly flagged as the original while a real original exists
- Bulk actions: reversible move to trash, or permanent delete
- Export results to CSV before taking any action
- Filter by post type and main language, including custom post types
