This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The client reported two issues: first, when switching from a Portuguese property page to an English one, the slug does not update, only the domain name changes. Clearing the WPResidence Cache resolves this issue temporarily. Second, in the translated version of a property, the featured image incorrectly appears as the first image in the slider, which does not happen in the English version.
Solution:
For the first issue regarding the slug not updating, we recommend clearing the WPResidence Cache as a temporary fix. However, for a more permanent solution, it might be necessary to check the WPML language configuration settings or update the WPML plugins to ensure they are handling URL changes correctly.
For the second issue with the featured image appearing first in the slider in the translated property, we suggest creating a new property and translating it to see if the problem persists. This can help determine if the issue is with the specific property or a general problem with the settings. If the issue continues, reviewing the image display settings in WPML and the theme might be necessary.

Please note that the solution provided might be outdated or not applicable to your specific case. We highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the problem persists, please open a new support ticket.

I wrote to the support of the theme, as one problem persits, when I am coming from a portugues property and switch back to english, the slug dont changes, just the domain name. But when you press Clear WpResidence Cache, it goes to normal.

I translated now a property without disorder in images, only issue is that the second language shows the featured image as the first image of the slider (gallery) what in english not is.

Maybe I set a point to much that it appears?

Thanks for your reply. I couldn't find any issues with the current image display settings. To test further, I created a new property in English here: hidden link and translated it into Portuguese: hidden link . The featured image is displaying correctly without any duplicates. Could you try creating a new property on your end and check if it works properly?
