Hi,

I've changed my default language to arabic, but I am having issue once clicking any thing in the english version it switches automatically to the arabic language !

Site: hidden link

Note: I have just returned the Default language to english as my campaigns is now running until the problem is solved.

Hello,

thanks, but I am sorry I do not see from the video what are you clicking nor do I understand your reply.

Can you please explain the steps that I need to take? Is the issue with links in the menu in 2nd language?

If so, have you translated this menu already as explained in our docs:

- https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-menus/#option-2-translating-menus-manually

Let me know.

Thanks,
Drazen

Hello,

as said in my previous reply I am not aware from your reply or video what is the issue, I do not see what you clicked.

Please try to be a bit more informative or share step by step guide on how can I check.

1) I still see the menu in Arabic.

2) Have you translated button links in 2nd language as explained here:
