This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The client is experiencing an issue where only part of their website is translated into Hebrew using the default theme font. Specifically, the Alef font is working correctly in both Hebrew and English for the menus, but not for the text inside the pages. Additionally, the client wants to control the font, spacing, and leading of the drop-down menu on the main page, which looks different between languages. There is also a problem with links inside the text on translated pages reverting to the original English page after a few hours.
Solution:
We addressed the first issue regarding the font inconsistency. We informed the client that we handle only one issue per ticket to maintain focus and efficiency. For the font issue, we directed the client to an existing ticket that discusses how to use CSS to apply a specific font across different languages. The ticket can be found at https://wpml.org/forums/topic/translated-font/.
For the other issues, we created separate tickets:

Hello,
1. It seems that only part of the website is translated into Hebrew using the default font of the theme. The Alef font works great in both Hebrew and English, but only the menus inherited the font in the translation, while the text inside the pages received a completely different font, how can I change that everything will be translated using the Alef font?
2. How do I control the font, spacing and leading (space between the lines), of the drop-down menu on the main page of the site, which changes between the languages (see attached image) it looks different from the rest of the site, and I want to change it.

Thanks, eliya

Hello

2. How do I control the font, spacing and leading (space between the lines), of the drop-down menu on the main page of the site, which changes between the languages (see attached image) it looks different from the rest of the site, and I want to change it.

3. I have a problems with links inside a text in translated pages. please see the attached image. I change the link manually, to link to a product translated page, it holds for few hours, but then updated from somewhere, and the links goes back to the original link to english page (the main one and not the translated) is there a different place or way to update those links to point to the translated pages?

Thanks, eliya

Hi Eliya.

Per our Support Policy, we can handle only one issue per ticket.

Continuing with one issue per ticket helps not only supporters to focus on one issue at once, but also enables other users to find solutions to their questions faster.

So let's tackle point number 1 in this ticket. I created new tickets for the other issues that you mentioned and you can find them below:

- https://wpml.org/forums/topic/split-how-to-control-design-in-translation/

- https://wpml.org/forums/topic/split-i-have-a-problems-with-links-inside-a-text-in-translated-pages/

In regards to the initial question that you had, you can see in this other existing ticket here (https://wpml.org/forums/topic/translated-font/) how you can use CSS to be able to use any font that you want in the other languages. It is very interesting that "Alef" is the same font mentioned in this existing ticket, too.

So please take a look at that and let me know how things go.

Mihai
