Hello, I am experiencing an issue with WPML + WooCommerce + the Woodmart theme (Layout Builder) where product category links switch to the default language. 1.Environment 2. Problem description The issue appears when interacting with the (after) 3rd subcategories in that grid. When hovering over or clicking a subcategory, the URL generated for that category points to the default language version of the taxonomy instead of the French one. In other words, the page the user is currently viewing belongs to the French category hierarchy, but the links produced for the child categories are generated using the default language category base and default-language slugs. As a result: 3. Important details The problem occurs starting from the second / third level of the category hierarchy. Category structure: The same in French version. Thank you. |

Hi Dominic, I need to examine this more closely. We have 2 options: What do you prefer? If you choose to share access, let me know and I will make your next reply a private one. If on the other hand, you would like to reproduce from scratch, I will create a sandbox site and share access details with you. Let me know. |

Thanks, this will help me re-create the problem on my local server to debug in depth. I will get back to you as soon as I find more information. |

I followed the particularities of your setup to try replicating your issue on a local fresh install, without success so far. I have also tried going several categories deep on your site but I didn't find the issue you describe. For example: Could you point me to a specific URL where I can see the problem on your site? |

I can see it now. I tried replicating your exact situation from scratch: These steps are working for me. Can I take a duplicator package to figure the difference with your setup? |

FYI: While I get your approval, I installed a plugin to examine the database. I will remove when I'm done. |

Thanks. I will effectively be doing a backup to restore locally. So I would say there is no need for you to make another backup. |
