Kor Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Singapore (GMT+08:00)	Thank you for responding. As previously mentioned, should you require separate WordPress installations for different languages, a multisite setup is necessary. However, it's important to note that the specific domain requirement you have cannot be fulfilled with a multisite, as outlined in detail here: https://wpml.org/documentation/support/multisite-support/. Therefore, my suggestion is to utilize a single WordPress installation capable of accommodating both domains, hidden link and hidden link, and dynamically displaying content based on the respective domain language.

Kor Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Singapore (GMT+08:00)	Thanks for your reply. I will need to closely examine your website. Therefore, I will require temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your Website. Please note that it is important to have a backup for security purposes and to prevent any potential data loss. You can use the UpdraftPlus plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/updraftplus/) to fulfill your backup requirements. Your upcoming reply will be treated with confidentiality and will only be visible to you and me. ✙ To resolve the issue, I may need your consent to deactivate and reactivate plugins and the theme, as well as make configuration changes on the site if necessary. This emphasizes the significance of having a backup.

Kor Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Singapore (GMT+08:00)	Thanks for your patience. I can see that you've installed the WPML plugin and I've checked the settings here hidden link and I still couldn't validate the domain "www.panelsklep.pl" as shown in the attached screenshot. It shows "Not Valid". Could you ask your domain provider to check why opening this link hidden link shows a forbidden error message as shown in the attached screenshot?

Kor Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Singapore (GMT+08:00)	Thank you for your response. It seems there may still be some confusion regarding the functionality of the "A different domain per language" option. Allow me to clarify once more: Firstly, you will need to purchase the domains required for each language you intend to use. Here's an example: - panelshop.sk - Slovak Language (Primary Language) - panelshop.cz - Czech Language (Secondary Language) - plytysklep.pl - Polish Language (Secondary Language) - SANDWICHPANELERAFFAR.SE - Swedish Language (Secondary Language) Once you've obtained all the listed domains, you'll need to point all secondary language domains to the server IP address of panelshop.sk, which is 46.229.230.179. After pointing the domains, we can verify if they are correctly directed in WPML → Languages. Scroll down to the Language URL format section and choose "A different domain per language". All domains must show the green "Valid" message when you click on the "Save" button. For reference, please see: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/language-url-options/how-to-use-wpml-with-different-domains-per-language/#3-set-up-the-option-in-wpml Once all domains are validated(show a green "valid" message), you can proceed to translate the contents. For instance, panelshop.sk/post1 will display content in Slovak, while panelshop.cz/post1 will display content in Czech and etc. I trust this clarifies the process. Please keep me informed about the progress of pointing your secondary domains to the primary language server IP as mentioned above. Let me know if you encounter any difficulties or if there's anything else I can assist you with.
