Background of the issue:
I am writing blogs in Dutch about specific countries and selecting the country as the primary category. My permalink structure is xxx/%category%/%postname%/. After translation, the primary category changes from the country to the continent, altering the permalink structure.
Symptoms:
After translation, the primary category changes from the country to the continent, affecting the permalink structure.
Questions:
How can I change the primary category before the automatic translation releases the post?
How can I ensure future blogs maintain the desired permalink structure after translation?
I will need to closely examine your website. Therefore, I will require temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to a test site where the problem has been replicated, if possible. This will enable me to provide better assistance and determine if any configurations need to be modified.
Please note that it is important to have a backup for security purposes and to prevent any potential data loss. You can use the UpdraftPlus plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/updraftplus/) to fulfill your backup requirements.
Your upcoming reply will be treated with confidentiality and will only be visible to you and me.
✙ To resolve the issue, I may need your consent to deactivate and reactivate plugins and the theme, as well as make configuration changes on the site if necessary. This emphasizes the significance of having a backup.
I've configured the option here hidden link as shown in the attached screenshot and it seems to work fine now after re-translating the post. Could you check?
