Problem: You are trying to translate over 2,000 tags on your website automatically using WPML, but you find no option for this in the translation panel, unlike the option available for categories. Solution: We recommend creating a post and assigning all the tags you wish to translate to this post. Then, navigate to WPML > Translation Management > Dashboard and send the post for automatic translation. This method allows you to translate all tags at once. For a detailed guide on translating taxonomy terms, please visit https://wpml.org/faq/how-to-translate-all-taxonomy-terms-at-once/.

Problem: You are working on a multilingual site and have added a new language using WPML. While the posts are translated correctly, the slugs and URLs are not being translated. Solution: To enable or change the translation of slugs and URLs, you should adjust the permalink settings for translated content. Here are the steps you can follow: 1. Navigate to WPML → Settings. 2. Under Translated documents options, set the Page URL to "Auto-generate from title (default)". 3. Re-translate the affected posts/pages into the new language to ensure the new URL settings are applied correctly. For more detailed guidance, please refer to our documentation on translating page slugs.

Problem: The client was experiencing an issue where WPML was creating unnecessary URLs in the format /pl/ and /en/ for a website that uses different domains for each language version. This resulted in six versions of each page instead of the required two, causing server load issues.
Solution: 1. We reset the permalinks to "postname" to ensure that URLs like https://4659bb91.cfolks.pl/pl/malta redirect to https://4659bb91.cfolks.pl/malta. 2. We advised the client to use the "A different domain per language" option as detailed in our documentation here. 3. We investigated the permalink structure "/%category%/%postname%.html" and found it was causing issues with WPML redirection. We escalated the issue to our secondary support team for further investigation. 4. We recommended checking if the Permalink Manager Pro plugin could redirect the unnecessary URLs to the correct ones, thus resolving the issue.
