Some of the translated pages/posts are redirecting to homepage even if there are translated posts available.

Hi,

Here is the forum ticket. I would like to request temporary access (wp-admin and FTP) to your site to take a better look at the issue. It would be better to have a testing site where the issue is replicated. Your next reply is set to private to share the info.

❌ IMPORTANT: Please backup your database and website before proceeding ❌
You can use this plugin to create the backup: https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/
✙ I would need your permission to de-activate and re-activate Plugins and the Theme to change configurations on the site if needed. This is also a reason the backup is critical.

Look forward to your reply.
Thanks

Hi,

It could be a temporary issue. I edit the post in Russian language and click on Update. Then I can access the post in the frontend as well.

Can you please recheck this?

There were other posts also with the same issue. I deleted them from the English language by editing and it worked. Not sure how they were created in English & not showing in the admin panel.
