chrisK-27	Background of the issue: Hi there, I've auto-translated a page from German to English. Within the page, I'm linking to other pages on my website. On the original German page, of course I link to the respective German pages. When auto-translated, the new text still links to those German pages - even though all those pages exist in English as well. Would it be possible that, when translating an internal hyperlink, the link is automatically changed to the English counterpart of the linked article? Symptoms: Questions:

Apparently WPML should link internal pages automatically. However it depends (sometimes) that how you're designing your content. For example, if you're using a page builder with some widgets/elements, those may need to be registered with WPML first. This is a common case among page builders. Alternatively, for existing ones you can also try WPML -> Settings -> Translate Link Targets (see attached). Further, please provide the debug information of your website for an overview of your setup. You can find the information in WPML -> Support -> and click the debug information link. Then copy the data from the next page and paste it in the "Debug info" section below. IMPORTANT: Do not write directly in the chat!! See https://wpml.org/faq/provide-debug-information-faster-support/ for more details. Regards.
