This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client needs to create a second language menu on their site without translating products and pages. They attempted to sync the menu, but this functionality was not active because the pages and products were not translated.
Solution:
We recommended manually creating menus in the secondary language as the automatic menu sync only works if posts and pages are translated. For detailed steps on manual menu creation, see this guide.
Additionally, setting the 'Translatable - use a translation if available or fallback to original language' option for Pages and Products Post Types allows listing primary language posts in secondary languages without translation.
For a temporary workaround, we suggested using the Custom Links feature in the WordPress Menu to manually create Menu Items in Arabic. A helpful screencast for this process can be found here: https://www.screenpresso.com/cloud/EyLYyVSIeL3T/.
