Background of the issue:
I am trying to use WPML to translate links on my site hidden link. I used auto-translation for many links on a page, but they are not changing to the translated page version based on the language.
Symptoms:
Links are not getting translated and not changing to the translated page version. The 'Translate Link Targets' feature doesn't fix the issue.
Questions:
How can we fix the problem of links not translating to the correct language version?

On this sandbox: hidden link
Can you create one Beaver Builder element similar to the one you're using for this button and add the link in the same way? Does it show in translation editor?
We think this to be compatibility issue and will see about creating XML that would automatically translate them.
I have created the 3 main ways we usually have links and buttons on our pages.
One photo with a link *(absolute URI and without no absolute URI)
One line with an "a" tag in the text or HTML code *(absolute URI and without no absolute URI)
button *(absolute URI and without no absolute URI)

Thank you for the test!
This has been escalated to our Compatibility team and may take some debugging time, I'll get back to you as soon as I have any news or questions for you.

The URLs you provided are not valid internal links on your website. WPML interprets these as external URLs that require translation since they don’t match your site’s internal structure. It seems you’re adding URLs that don’t actually exist on your website and expecting WPML to translate them.
For instance, your site’s URL is **hidden link, yet the button link is **hidden link. This mismatch indicates that the links point to a different site, which WPML cannot process as an internal link.
On the sandbox, find it here hidden link, where these URLs translate automatically as we have hidden link now.
I apologize for not catching this distinction earlier, as the "tokyo" in the URL signals a separate site.
Let me know if you have any questions related to the above!
Oh yes you are right since this is a copy of the main website and the person who made the content hardcoded the links with the URL most of them are not working but we also have one button that is from the same URL "tokyo".
check the button with the text "See All Blog Posts" I also added a screenshot
I checked with the content team, and that one was translated manually.
We didn't use autotranslation to translate the DE; all the content has been translated manually.
