Background of the issue:
I am trying to update all home pages across all languages with an image update. However, every homepage has now changed its URL to hidden link or /fr/maison, etc. The issue can be seen on pages like hidden link or hidden link.
Symptoms:
All traffic going to hidden link results in a dead page instead of the expected URL hidden link.
Questions:
Why did the homepage URLs change after the update?
How can I fix the issue of the homepage redirecting to a dead page?
I see that hidden link is redirecting to hidden link and all other links in language switcher to other translations of the home page also seem to have correct URLs, i.e. /pt-br/, /es/, /it/, /de/ and etc.
You mentioned that:
All traffic going to hidden link results in a dead page instead of the expected URL hidden link.
When I tried hidden link this threw a warning about non-secure site (see attached - a standard browser page warning to the visitor about sites not using HTTPS). This isn't a WPML problem but a browser implementation forcing sites to use a secure connection.
Can you please explain little more about the "dead page"? Because either hidden link or hidden link, are going to the same home page at hidden link.
