Hi there,

My default setting was Dutch now I want the default language to be English. I have switched this but I am getting 404 sings. Especially the homepage. Also if I check the home the url will have the slug /en but EN should be the default language so it shouldn't have that slug. Can you please check what's happening

Hi,

Thanks for contacting WPML forums support. I'll be glad to help you today.

First, apologies for the delayed response; it was due to a higher workload.

I would need to look closely at your site, so I would need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP)
Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated.

Your answer will be private, meaning only you and I can access it.

❌ Please back up your database and website ❌

✙ I need your permission to deactivate and reactivate the plugins and themes and change site configurations. This is also why the backup is critical.

✙ I also need your permission to take a local copy of your site to debug the issue without affecting your live site.

Best regards,
Osama
