Problem: The client is trying to enable a language switcher throughout the whole website using WPML but is unable to find documentation related to this. Solution: If you're experiencing issues with enabling a language switcher on your website, it might be due to the content post type (CPT) being set as not translatable. To display the language switcher without translating the posts, you can use the default language as a fallback for untranslated content. We recommend checking our guide on displaying untranslated content in secondary languages.
If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, please open a new support ticket. We also highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. For further assistance, you can contact us directly through our support forum.
Problem: The client was experiencing issues with links not appearing correctly in the English translation of their German website. The links either did not copy over or were empty, causing them to just reload the page instead of redirecting. Solution: We recommended the following steps to resolve the issue: 1. Edit the content in the original language. 2. Make a small change in the content, especially in the links. 3. Save the changes and update the translation. 4. Double-check if the issue disappeared. Additionally, we advised the client to: - Click on the links and add a space at the end of each link mentioned. - Go to WPML -> Settings -> Translate Link Targets -> Click on 'Scan now and adjust links', wait for the process to finish, and double-check the results.
