Problem: You are trying to create a regional site for Australia/New Zealand using British English without translating the content and are unsure how to manage regional sites using the same language in WPML.
Solution: We currently do not have an option in WPML to specify languages based on region or to redirect users based on their region. However, you can add a new language based on your desired locale by editing WPML's languages table. For detailed instructions, please visit Editing WPML's Languages Table. Additionally, you can redirect users based on their browser language. For more information on setting this up, please see Automatic Redirect Based on Browser Language.

Problem: You need to apply site-wide design changes across multiple language versions on your website and are also looking to add US English as a language option. Solution: To apply design changes across all languages, you can use the default behavior of WPML with a page builder like Divi. This allows you to maintain one main design, where WPML replaces the content strings within the page builder's shortcode. For detailed guidance on managing different designs for different translations, we recommend checking out this documentation: Using Different Translation Editors for Different Pages. As for adding US English, this can be set up as a custom language, and it is a straightforward process.

Problem: The client needed to make the main logo in the menu/navigation link to the home page of the current language, instead of only linking to the English version. Solution: 1. Go to Divi Theme Builder and edit the header. 2. Edit the logo and change the link from manual to Dynamic and select the home page as the source. 3. Note the header name in the layout settings, in this case 'Coming Soon Header'. 4. Go to WPML -> Translation Management and search for the header. 5. Send it for translation and translate it. After following these steps, the secondary languages of the site should have the correct link in the logo.
