Tell us what you are trying to do?
So we need to update our Chinese language from ZH-HANS to just ZH. I can see that i will need to create and setup a new language for ZH, but what i am needing assistance with is how can we take our pages we have setup and translated for ZH-HANS and set them to the new ZH language.
In that case you're right, you will have to create a new language with a different language code because that's the language code that is used to build the URLs.
Here you have 2 options:
1. Duplication
- Edit an actual Chinese page and duplicate it in your new custom language language
You can do it manually page by page or you can go to "WPML > Translation Management" to do it in bulk.
- Once all the content has been duplicated on your custom language and if needed, you can remove the original Chinese language.
2. Translation
- Giving that the custom language will be mapped to the same language then your actual Chinese, if you used our Advanced Translation Editor (ATE) to translate your pages before into Chinese. All the translations will be saved in our translation memory. So you should be able translate into your new custom language and the translation memory should use the previous translation.
