Hi,

Welcome to WPML support. I am going to answer his question before the ticket is assigned to one of my colleagues.

Would you please provide the debug information?

https://wpml.org/faq/provide-debug-information-faster-support/

Also, I will need to know what happens with the button link translation and which plugin button are we are talking about.

If you give us more information we will have a better idea.

Finally, I'd appreciate it if you could give me the URL/User/Pass of your WordPress dashboard after you make sure that you have a backup of your website.
It is absolutely important that you give us a guarantee that you have a backup so if something happens you will have a point of restore.

Make sure you set the next reply as private.

Hello,

thanks for getting back. Just to clarify things, internal links are automatically translated and the correct translated internal link should be shown in 2nd language, if not then this is not correct and we should check what happens and goes wrong.

What you asked related to a message from the FAQ page, is when the client wants to manually translate internal links inside buttons, etc, via ATE WPML editor, that is not possible for now. I can not tell the exact ETA since it depends on many things and tests, but for now, it is scheduled for approximately one month.

Let me know if any other doubts.

Regards,
Drazen
