ulrikM-3

When i translate products i have a product title like:
Dell Pro Rugged 14 Laptop (NEW) with an URL of hidden link
I want the translated urls to just be copy, but with the corresponding language directories so like this: hidden link
As of now the translated urls add "-new" to the slug so it will for instance be for sweden : hidden link
I have disabled slug translations in WPML settings.

I have troubleshootet a lot and If i go to WPML language and edit language and set ENCODE URLS to yes (i have done this with Danish/denmark and tested), the issue does not happen and the correct url happens without the "new" added".

But not sure if this is the right approach.

I cannot find the funktion "Copy slug from original language" under "Posts and pages synchronization" which i think would be a more sustainable solution.
