By looking at the URL hidden link, looks like there's some issue due to "index.php" in the URL, which shouldn't be the part of the URL. However, trying with it throws "file not found" error, while without it, I get a 404 not found error.
I get the same 404, for hidden link. Have you translated completely and published the home page?
Further, I recommend updating WPML plugins to the latest versions and try again. If this doesn't help, then please review your site's .htaccess file. You can try the following steps to check if issue is coming from the .htaccess:
IMPORTANT: Please take full backup of your website and database beforehand.
It is highly advised to try this on a staging/dev site first, so your live website isn't compromised.
- Rename .htaccess file to something else (i.e. 1.htaccess).
- In WP Admin, go to Permalinks setting.
- Just hit the save button without making any change.
- Clear all caches and check again.
Please let me know your findings and I'll try my best to help you further on the matter.
Hello, thank you for your reply
I searched for the htaccess file, but I found that it has empty content. I changed it to 1.htaccess according to the method you suggested.
But it has no effect and still cannot open the link.
I can't even open this link now hidden link
Please help me, thank you
