Background of the issue:
I'd like to use the same category slug in different languages (DE/EN) on my site hidden link. WPML automatically appends the language code, and I saw that the workaround is to edit the slug manually and remove the language code. However, after saving, the language code gets attached again.
Symptoms:
After manually editing the slug to remove the language code, the language code gets reattached upon saving.
Questions:
What am I missing when trying to use the same category slug in different languages?
