This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client is trying to translate author pages on their site using WPML, but the pages are not getting translated.
Solution:
If you're experiencing issues with translating author pages, it's important to note that these pages are not standard posts or pages and require a different approach for translation. Firstly, you can translate the author's data by following this guide: Translating User Meta Information with WPML.
Additionally, for the language switcher on the author page to function correctly, the author must have at least one post translated into the corresponding languages. Without translated posts, the language switcher will not work as this is the default behavior in WordPress.
If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at WPML Known Issues, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If further assistance is needed, please open a new support ticket.
This is the technical support forum for WPML - the multilingual WordPress plugin.
