I’m having an issue when translating posts (post type "post", not a custom post type) and using the custom permalink structure including the main language slug in there as the attachment (/propiedades/%postname%).
The problem is that I can’t see the option to translate this slug as it is possible with the custom post types (see attached).
So when translating to english, the permalink structure stays as "/en/propiedades/..." and we need it to be "/en/properties/..."
How can I do it?
Unfortunately to move all the content under the main post type "post" to a cpt is not an option for us right now 🙁
Btw, it works great when translating the base category slug ("propiedades/categoria" to "properties/category").
for a slug of CPT to be translatable you need to set in the code you are using to use archive and define slug using rewrite.
WPML allows has_archive to be set to a string. However, if the string value is set to something other than rewrite['slug'], or the custom post type name slug is not set, the archive slug will not be translatable.
Thanks for your reply.
As mentioned, this is NOT a custom post type, as the CPT are not the problem here (as per the shared attachment when translating the CPT “investment” slug from “/inversiones" to “/investors").
What I need to translate is the slug defined on the custom permalink structure for the native/reserved post type "post”.
I haven’t found it on the provided link, how can I do it?
Can you please confirm if there is an approach to sort this on the current version?
Or the only way to translate the slug will be to create a CPT and move all the content under the default post type.
As for a solution to your issue, the best and correct way would be to create a new CPT with a translatable slug and then translate it however you need.
I hope I was helpful. Don't hesitate to ask if you find any problems along the way, I'll gladly help you.
