Problem:
You are trying to translate menus on a website from English into Bulgarian and German. When attempting to add pages to the translated menus, the pages are not visible or available.
Solution:
If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend ensuring that the pages you want to add to your menus are first translated into the respective languages. Pages must be translated into Bulgarian and German before they can appear in the menu translation options. For detailed guidance on translating pages, please visit Translating with the Plus Icons.

If this solution does not apply because it might be outdated or not relevant to your specific case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If issues persist, please open a new support ticket.

<b>Background of the issue: </b>
I am trying to translate the menus on a website with English as the default language into Bulgarian and German. I create the menus, but on the left side where I should add pages, everything is empty, and no pages are available. In the original English language, all the pages are available.

<b>Symptoms: </b>
On the left side where I should add pages, everything is empty, and no pages are available.

<b>Questions: </b>
Why are the pages not showing up when I try to add them to the translated menus in WPML?
How can I make the pages available for adding to the translated menus in Bulgarian and German?

Thank you for contacting WPML support.

The pages you are looking for are unavailable because they may not have been translated. Make sure to translate the pages to secondary languages first.
