Situation:

Solution:

  • Go to the attribute admin page for ALL Languages
    • [domain]/wp-admin/edit-tags.php?taxonomy=[attribute-name]&lang=all&post_type=product
    • Alternatively, check each translation’s order from the language drop down
  • Just because 1 translation / english (base translation) is ordered correct, does not mean translations will follow the same order.
    • The translation of attribute does not follow the original attribute in terms of order.
