Problem:
If you're trying to manually change the slug of a translated page and are having trouble doing so with your current settings.
Solution:
We recommend switching your setting to 'Translate'. After making this change, perform a minor edit in the original language to prompt the translation requirement. Then, access the translation editor where you will find the option to translate the slug. For detailed guidance, visit Translating Page Slugs.

Hi,

Here is my url slug translation setting: hidden link

After a page is translated, how can I change its slug manually?

Hi there,

It is not possible with that option.

You will need to select the Translate option. Then do a small change on the original language to trigger the need to translate.

Then if you go to the translation editor you will see the slug there and you can translate it.

Thanks.
