both issues seem to be connected and are not resolved.
Resetting the language switcher has caused all posts (listings) to appear as English originals, even though the listings are posted in various languages and mustn´t be mixed.
A website backup has been uploaded to walk back the listings issue.

Hello there,

Before proceeding here, please make sure to first follow the steps shared on the other ticket:
https://wpml.org/forums/topic/language-switcher-not-showing-in-only-1-page-listing-translations-stay/

After that, go to WPML > Languages > Language switcher options and click on "Link to home of language for missing translations"

That will add the language switcher to that page. Please note that the switcher on that page takes to the home-page in the selected language. Apparently the Listings Page from the plugin is not compatible with WPML's switcher. You can confirm with the author.

I have contacted the author of the plugin.
Please assist the de-bugging by describing in greater detail what is the exact issue or what is not compatible, so he can fix it.
Thanks.

Hello there,

I re-checked your website, and it seems that now the language switcher is behaving as expected on the all-ads page. Perhaps it was a caching issue. In this case, it's not necessary to reach out to the plugin author. It's likely that this was a temporary glitch.

Regards,

Hi,
I have reached out to the plugin author myself and he has forced the language switcher there.
The fix is not a workable solution if this happens again, so it´s not really resolved.

It is not cache related.

Hello there,

Thank you for clarifying. In this case, let's first check if the issue is exclusive to your website, or if it's a broader compatibility issue between WPML and the Classified Listing plugins. To do that, I've created a Sandbox (testing website) for you. You can access it here:

Please install the necessary Classified Listing plugins, create only one Listing, so we have an archive page. The idea here is to test in isolation, so please DO NOT import, create or install anything unrelated to the issue. Only one listing is enough so we can test. Let me know when you're done, so I can proceed testing. That will help me to narrow down possible causes of the Language Switcher problem. I know this takes some effort, so thanks in advance for your cooperation.

What did the plugin author say about the issue, did he share any relevant information?

Regards,
