marekC-15	Background of the issue: I'm trying to translate the mega menu 'mega menu heder' into German on my site hidden link. I manually created the Mega Menu in German. Symptoms: The German Mega Menu is not organized and appears in a 'funky' way compared to the original menu. Questions: How can I organize the German Mega Menu to match the original layout?

Mihai Apetrei Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Europe/Bucharest (GMT+02:00)	Hi there. This "max mega menu" plugin seems to have known issues with WPML. Please take a look at this existing ticket here and my colleague's response: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/max-mega-menu-is-not-correct-in-other-language/#post-15595174 I also ran a Custom search so that you can easily have access to all the existing published tickets that are related to this same plugin: hidden link Many people have reported it, so I recommend contacting the plugin's support team to see if they have a solution. If they have no solution, you can also recommend them to join our 'Go Global' program (https://wpml.org/documentation/theme-compatibility/go-global-program/), where our Compatibility developers will help them make their product 100% compatible with WPML for free. I hope that you will find this information helpful. Mihai Apetrei

marekC-15	Initially at least part of the mega menu was translated correctly, but I removed it, and tried to create it manualy in other language. This is when it crashed. Is there any way to bring back the automatic translation of one of the menus that I have deleted? If not possible to bring back deleted menu, then how to make automatic translation of a selected menu again?

Mihai Apetrei Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Europe/Bucharest (GMT+02:00)	Hi there. Unfortunately, deleted content can't be recovered. Regarding translating the menu, there are three options that you can use: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-menus/#choose-the-menu-translation-method I am unsure which works best with this non-compatible mega menu plugin. You can probably try to use the third option, where you manually translate the menu from scratch if it works well with the plugin. But it would be hard to confidently recommend one of the steps, considering that the plugin is not fully compatible with WPML and that I have never used it before. I hope that you will find this information helpful.
