[Resolved] url "undefined" on mobile select drop down

Thank you for contacting us !

I believe this is coming from the following piece of JavaScript code the Theme Author is using, which is why this issue is happening only when WPML is activated as that piece of JS code is targeting our mobile dropdown language switcher.

Most likely

window.location.href = $(e.target).attr('href');

                    //Mobile lang dropdown
                    if ( event == "touchend" ) {
                        if ($(e.target).parents('.select-options').length) {
                            window.location.href = $(e.target).attr('href');
                        }
                    }

                    self.siblings(".select-options").hide();
                    self.removeClass('active');

                    if (!$(e.target).parents().hasClass('select-options select-styled')) {
                        self.removeClass('active');
                        self.siblings(".select-options").hide();
                    }
                }
            });
        });
    }

Please share the above with your theme authors and they should be able to fix this on their side.

Let me know their feedback

I can confirm that the issue is coming from the above JS I provided found in the Theme's Code.

wp-content/themes/stockie/assets/js/main.js?ver=5.4.2

As long as WPML is activated I believe that piece of code will run.

You can find the code in the browser console and simply comment it out, or change the

 if ( event == "touchend" )

to something that doesn't exist such as

 if ( event == "none" )

and it will work as expected.

I can verify this after testing it, this is a common JavaScript error.

Please contact your theme support and let me know their feedback.

I would reach out to them here as a buying customer and ask them to review the feedback on this ticket.

We can start a compatibility process but as of right now they are not part of our compatible themes that have been tested by our team, therefore we do not have immediate communication with their team and the process would depend on how soon they respond.

https://wpml.org/documentation/theme-compatibility/

As this is an issue that is coming from the theme's code it is recommended to contact them directly as we cannot work on their code as this would be outside of our support's capabilities.

If the above is not an option you can try changing the code or commenting it out but then again, I cant say what consequences that could have.

Ex. Go to wp-content/themes/stockie/assets/js/main.js?ver=5.4.2 and change the event trigger to none, but please note that this is a hacky workaround and I cannot guarantee the results.

Great, I am glad this workaround worked.

I'd still update the theme authors on their theme's comment section just so they can be aware and hopefully update the code in their core so in future releases you won't have to apply the workaround.
