Hello I made some tests.

I still have some things broken.

Before I restore the website, maybe you can help me.

PROBLEM:
The Main Menu has disappeared ONLY in the admin of wordpress.
This Main Menu was still working on the frontend pages.
I tried to use WP Menu Sync to solve the issue and I got the Main Menu back in the backend.
But the issue is on the Frontend now, because there is 2 Main Menus instead of 1 on the secondary languages:
-> hidden link
-> hidden link
-> hidden link

I will stop touching at anything until I get your recommandations, I do not want to break anything more.

NOTES: I would prefer to recover the old menu because all the translations were done already.

Thanks for your help

Hi,

You might have experienced a known issue, which you can read about here.

https://wpml.org/errata/wp-menu-sync-translation-of-custom-menu-items/

When I edit the menu in French, I can see the problem. The menu is doubled. Please see the attached screenshot.

I suggest you edit the menus in French, Catalan, and Portuguese and fix the problem directly on the menus. This is an alternative option to syncing the menus.

**** Important! Please make a full site backup (files and DB) before you proceed with those steps****

Regards,
Itamar.

Hello,

I restored the website because too many things were broken.

Now the menus are clean and there is less problems.

I still have the problem of "In progress" status.

Thanks

Hi,

I'm glad that the menu issue is fixed now. I'd appreciate if you can mark this ticket as resolved.

You already told me that the "In progress" issue is fixed on the other ticket here.

If it is the same issue, please continue with the other ticket. If it is a new issue, please open a new ticket.

Thanks,
Itamar.
