Thanks for your reply.

I will need to closely examine your website. Therefore, I will require temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to the Website that you're having issues with so that I can provide better assistance and determine if any configurations need to be modified.

Please note that it is important to have a backup for security purposes and to prevent any potential data loss. You can use the UpdraftPlus plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/updraftplus/) to fulfill your backup requirements.

Your upcoming reply will be treated with confidentiality and will only be visible to you and me.

✙ To resolve the issue, I may need your consent to deactivate and reactivate plugins and the theme, as well as make configuration changes on the site if necessary. This emphasizes the significance of having a backup.

Thanks for your reply.

I've corrected it for you and the translation management can now be used again.

Thank you for fixing it!

Unfortunately, the entire translation system is still a mess, and I do not know where to start with all the errors. I will list them as separate comments, because I figure you have been to the site, know log in etc. and can make sense of it faster than if I make different tickets that end up at different agents?

I just now went to map-app.pfotenpiloten.org/up/1655881115341/. I go to the flag in the footer to translate the German page, and it lists the link as map-app.pfotenpiloten.org/up/1655881115341/en. When I click on it though, I come to a totally different page, that is not even published and that has corrupted formatting:

On hidden link, after fixing the error a few days ALL translations have disappeared. This site has been carefully translated for months, and now there are no English translations left, it seems.

When I click on the link in the language box "connect translations", it just reloads the page.

New threads created by Kor and linked to this one are listed below:

In regards to 1) the same happens when I am on an English page, like hidden link, and click on the logo in the menu.
The mouseover link says it goes to hidden link, but when I click on it, it comes to an extremely corrupted version of our hidden link homepage, without that anyone has configured it this way! This does not make any sense and it feels like there is trouble in every part of this...

Thanks for your reply.

I've re-checked this page hidden link and in the backend of the English language page, could you check the translated contents? hidden link . It looks like to me you're using the manual translation.

As for this domain hidden link , are the WP admin access the same?

Yes, log in (and I think ftp) should be the same, it is a sub site of Pfotenpiloten.org.
It is possible that you see manual translation, because it jumps to a random page, that is ancient.
It might be, because the page includes a slider that is not translated, but still - it should not just pick a page and display it?
Same error happens when clicking on Logo in English site.

Thanks for your reply. I've checked and this is what I'm getting hidden link . Maybe you can record a screen recording from your end and show me what you're seeing over there?

Also, that's the smart slider and it's not tested or fully compatible with WPML. But here is what you can do to translate it. hidden link
