Problem: The client's news archives were not working and resulted in a 404 error. The issue was observed after the client's HomeURL and SiteURL settings were found to be different, and they were using the 'Use directory for default language' option. Solution: 1. We advised the client to ensure that both the SiteURL and HomeURL are set to the same URL (https://www.voltaero.aero/). 2. We provided instructions on how to add "/en/" to the default language by following the documentation: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/directory-default-language/. 3. We recommended clearing the cache of the website after setting up the languages, especially since the client was using a Speed Optimizer plugin. 4. We instructed the client to set just the filename of the file used for setting the directory for the default language (e.g., redirect.php) and referred them to the documentation for detailed information: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/directory-default-language/.
