<b>Background of the issue: </b>
I have a headless WordPress site with English (en) and German (de) pages, using WPGraphQL with the WPML GraphQL plugin to query pages. English is the default language. I am trying to query all German pages using the following query:
query {
pages(where: {language: "de"}) {
nodes {
isFrontPage
languageCode
uri
title
}
}
}
Link to a page where the issue can be seen:
<b>Symptoms: </b>
The query returns pages with URIs that include the language in the path, like /de/about/, but the front page URI is just / instead of /de/. This causes issues because I can't query a localized front page. Using
page(id: "/", idType: URI)
returns the English front page, while
page(id: "/de", idType: URI)
and similar variations return null. However, querying
page(id: "/de/about", idType: URI)
correctly returns the German about page.
<b>Questions: </b>
Why does the front page URI not include the language code for German?
How can I correctly query the localized front page using WPML GraphQL?
[EDIT: I really hope you didn't just AI-SLOP my carefully crafted, detailed support ticket that i spent half an hour on writing, and removed like 80% in the process????]
[EDIT 2: Yes you did. That's not a good experience.]
Thank you for contacting the support and I hope it is OK to continue in English.
First of all please accept our apologies if something was stripped out of your first message. Usually it doesn't happen, perhaps the message wasn't submitted correctly or may contain such code or content which may have been filtered out.
However can you please add those details again? You can use "code" tag to add your code as you did already or can add screenshots or share a video showing the details.
Besides this, I need to take a closer look at your site. So I request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP), preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated.
Your next answer will be private, to share this information safely.
Also provide detailed steps to reproduce the issue and links to pages in the admin and on the frontend.
IMPORTANT: Please take a complete backup of the site to avoid data loss. I may need to activate/deactivate plugins also.
Thank you for your patience and cooperation. Before closing today, I was just wanted to update you that I've prepared my local setup and testing things in there.
