rafaelS-33	Hi there We're building up an international webshop and were wondering how to build the URL-Structures to be best possibly SEO compliant. Our base language is German (www.site.com). Now we also added English in WPML and decided to add the /en/ parameter to each URL when switching to this language. As we're using WooCommerce, would it be the best way from an SEO perspective to i.e. create the cart and checkout pages like this?` Option 1 --- English: hidden link German: hidden link (warenkorb in German = Basket) English: hidden link German: hidden link (kasse in German = Checkout) Option 2 --- English: hidden link German: hidden link English: hidden link German: hidden link Thank you so much for your help and advice. Best Rafael

I would personally recommend translating the slug to match the language. This is a good documentation to read on how to optimize your WPML site for SEO https://wpml.org/documentation/how-to-set-up-multilingual-seo-on-your-website/
