When I translate a page into French, the "Add" and "Remove" buttons for content types are not present in the translated page, making it impossible for the user to properly edit the page. I have attached screenshots of the EN and FR page showing the missing button. I'm not sure how to go about fixing this issue. Any help would be much appreciated.

ocraig created an issue. See original summary.

I'm also running into this issue. My use-case is as follows:

- the user creates an English content item with 2 paragraph items in it.
- the user then translates the content item to German
- the German item needs an additional paragraph item, but this cannot be added.

Would be great if anyone has an idea on how to be able to get this functionality in there.

Thanks for chiming in, Stephan. And for explaining the issue better than I did.
Nice to know I'm not alone on this one.

The currently supported geometry is a entity reference revision field on the host that is not translatable.
As a result, we define that all paragraphs are present in all languages.
We hide the add / remove buttons to make it clear that the paragraphs content can be translated, but you can't have different structure.

There are currently two approaches to what you are looking for:
1) There is a patch for Paragraphs Collection that brings a plugin that allows to define per-language visibility of a Paragraph item
#2846682: New Plugin: Visibility per language
2) There is a patch in Paragraphs that want to support translatable ERR case
#2461695: Support asymmetric translations

yeah, that is by design, as @miro_dietiker said, there are two approaches for making that work as you want, if you can help us with testing pathes, reviewing or writing tests for those issues, patches can faster get in. Postponed.
