Background of the issue:
I am trying to translate link-targets on all pages for duplicated content in the same language as the original. I have created a custom language for our UK customers (our default is US-English). Instead of translating, I have duplicated the content needed for our UK site. However, the internal links on the sites do not update with 'Translate Link Targets - scan and adjust links'. I would rather not do this manually since we have multiple pages and languages with multiple links on each just on this site. We are also repeating this US-English to UK-English translation for our other site later on.
Symptoms:
The internal links on the duplicated content do not update with 'Translate Link Targets - scan and adjust links'.
Questions:
How do I translate link-targets on all pages for duplicated content in the same language as original?
How do I best create a separate translation from US-English to UK-English?
Is there any other way to update the links without doing it manually?
Is there a better way than to create a custom language and duplicating the content for US-English to UK-English translation?
I tested it on my local test site, and it should work. If the posts exist, then the links in the duplicated content should work. I created a post in the default language on my test site and duplicated it. Then, in the default language, I created another post with a link to the first post. I then duplicated that second post with the link. When I tried the link on the second duplicated post, it went to the first duplicated post.
Can you please describe the process you take?
