Tell us what you are trying to do?
Everytime I change a page or product I get 404 pages on the frontside. After saving the redirects the problem is solved. Is this a know problem and can I install a fix or plugin for this?

Is there any documentation that you are following?
No, only the former emails that you send me.

Is there a similar example that we can see?
Not now, only when I change something and you will look at is right away.

What is the link to your site?
hidden link

Could you please provide further details to help me understand the situation better?

It might be helpful to provide screenshots to avoid any miscommunication or confusion. You can upload the screenshot using the "upload an image" feature below the comment section.

Are you able to replicate the problem? Does the issue happen in the default language or only in the secondary languages?

Please update your WPML plugin to the latest version 4.6.7 and add-ons to benefit from the latest bug fixes and improvements. This may not necessarily resolve your problem, however, in order to troubleshoot the issue best, we need to work on the latest code available.

You can check the latest released versions under "My Account -> Downloads" on this site. Instructions to update can be found here: http://wpml.org/faq/install-wpml/

Please remember to back up your database first before you proceed. You can use a plugin for this if you like (example: http://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/)

Let me know about the results.

This morning I changed the website logo in Divi and the site went to 404 pages.
I saved the permalinks again and the site was working normally.

I installed the newest version now
The site went to 404 again.
Saving permalinks and everything is okay again.

For 4 month ago I talked already with one of your colleagues about this problem. The conclusion was that it had something to do with the wpm links that get messed up.

I am unable to provide any information regarding the links that are giving 404 errors. To understand the issue better, I would require additional information.

Have you been able to replicate the problem? I would suggest deactivating all plugins except WPML temporarily to check if the issue persists.

Before making any changes, please ensure that you have backed up your database.

I looks like the 404 problem is solved, perhaps by the update.
