Background of the issue:
I have a translated page on my site that I need to hide because it is out of date. I set it to draft, but it still shows in the menu and widget language switcher. I am trying to unpublish a translation so it can be revised and published again at a later date. Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link
Symptoms:
The language switcher still shows the translation link which now goes to a 404 error. I expected the link to the Español version to disappear from the site menu and widget area after I unpublished the translation and cleared the server and object cache. Instead, I can still see the link to the unpublished page in the menu language switcher and the widget language switcher on the page.
Questions:
Why does the language switcher still show the link to the unpublished translation?
How can I remove the link to the unpublished translation from the language switcher?
Sorry for the second response, but I really think this issue is because the content was published and now has been unpublished but the language switchers don't seem to understand that?
Thank you. I cleared all the cache and was logged out in a different browser when I was seeing the links still, but maybe something else needed time because I see the same as you now a few days later, but the first day the link was still present even logged out with browser and server cache cleared so I don't get it. Thanks.
