Split: part of main menu is not translated

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
1. The client's language switcher flags are not displaying.
2. When selecting the English language button, it redirects to the main page in Korean instead of the English version.
3. Using auto-translate does not translate all content, such as the main menu, and only parts of it are translated.

Solution:
For the third issue regarding menu translation:
- If using the menu sync tool with auto-translate, custom links in the menu will not be automatically translated. To translate custom links, navigate to WPML > WP Menus Sync, click on sync, check for missing translations, and use the String Translation Tool. Here is a detailed guide on how to do this: Translating Menus.
- If translating menus manually, you may need to edit them in the desired language. The same documentation applies: Translating Menus Manually.
- If the issue persists, we request a screenshot of the menu editing screen from Appearance > Menus to identify the specific links not working as expected.

If this solution doesn't look relevant, please open a new support ticket at the WPML support forum.

If you are using the menu sync tool along with auto-translate, it won't automatically translate custom links on your menu. To achieve that, you have to go to WPML > WP Menus Sync click on sync, see what's missing and translate your custom links using the String Translation Tool. Here's a detailed explanation on how to do that, in case you find it necessary: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-menus/#option-3-automatic-menus-sync-by-wpml If you are translating your menus manually, you might have to edit them in the desired language. Here's a detailed explanation (it's the same documentation): https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-menus/#option-2-translating-menus-manually If that doesn't solve your issue, please share a screenshot of your menu editing screen on Appearance > Menus and tell me which links are specifically not working as expected. Best regards, Lucas Vidal

woocheolJ	maybe i need to translating manually. It little bit hard for me because auto translating already translated menu naming to chines, but it is what it is :p thank you for your help!!
