sandraF-13	Bringing one more thing to your attention. I am using AVADA for the mega menu option on my site. I have noticed that on selecting the language, the main category menu item names are not getting translated in both the languages. I have cross checked at three places and found these menu items are all translated already. please check here - hidden link - hidden link and here - hidden link [ Select UA category ] Can you please take a look and check asap, will be highly thankful : )

Kor Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Singapore (GMT+08:00)	Thanks for your reply. I've checked your menus here hidden link and could you try the navigation menu translation method listed here https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-menus/ and see if it works for you?

sandraF-13	Can you please suggest which one to opt, as you know the menu options are created in AVADA using a mega menu and only a certain part of menu has already got translated into both the languages that is "Coated Abrasives" Rest of the other menus could not. If I will use WP menu sync It will replace the menu entirely from site. What's the best remedy here. can I copy the same English for french and spanish language and then later replace the english menu options with french and spanish. Thanks

Kor Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Singapore (GMT+08:00)	Thanks for your reply. Referring to the documentation https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-menus/#fully-custom-create-menus-manually , option "Fully Custom – Create the Menu Translations By Yourself" would be your best choice here. Could you follow the instructions and let me know if you need help?

sandraF-13	Hi Kor, Good News: I am able to see the menu options available in French and Spanish both. Bad News : Now the product title and product category names under the Product main menu options are converted to FR and ES their URLs are still in english ver and not changed to /fr/ and /es/. Can you tell why it is happening so and what's the remedy here? Also, I noticed very strange thing, which was not earlier and somehow is appearing now, On translating any of the product page (only) in french and not spanish, the search bar goes away leaving these marks. (plz refer SS)

Kor Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Singapore (GMT+08:00)	Thanks for your reply. It seems to work fine when I reinsert the categories as shown in the attached screenshot. Could you try replacing it with the correct category and see if it's linking to the correct category page? It looks like to me the categories are still using the links from the English language hence causing the issue you had there.
