[Resolved] Same slug in different languages

Problem:
The client is trying to use the same category slug in different languages (DE/EN) on your site, but WPML automatically appends the language code to the slug. Even after manually editing the slug to remove the language code, it gets reattached upon saving.
Solution:
In WordPress, slugs must be unique, which is why the language code is automatically added to the translated term. You can use the Quick Edit option to manually remove the language slug from the category term as a workaround. Please follow the steps suggested in the following errata: https://wpml.org/errata/translated-term-slug-identical-to-the-original-term-slug/
