[Assigned] prevent slug translation

Hi,

I'll continue to help you with this issue.

There are two steps you need to take to avoid having the Japanese slug look like this:
hidden link

1. In WPML -> Settings -> Page URL, select the option 'Copy from original language if translation language uses encoded URLs' and click the Save button. (As I understand, this is already done on your site.)

2. In WPML -> Languages -> Edit languages (link), you need to select Yes for the Japanese language, and click the Save button. Please see the attached screenshot.

Then the Japanese page will have this slug, for example: hidden link.

You may want to do the same for all the other encoded languages on your site. Languages like Chinese, Korean, and Arabic.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

Please share your site's Debug information if you need further help with this issue. You can read about it here: http://wpml.org/faq/provide-debug-information-faster-support/

Itamar.

Hi,

With the copy of your site on my local server, it worked. I got this slug for the Japanese product after applying the needed settings and updating the Japanese product: /ja/shop/360マーケティング＆ブランディング/full-service-marketing/. You can see that /full-service-marketing/ has been copied over from German, the original language of this product.

I just checked your site, and it seems you did not apply this step I mentioned:

In WPML -> Languages -> Edit languages (link), you need to select Yes for the Japanese language and click the Save button.

Please see the attached screenshot. You need to change it to Yes and click the Save button. Then you need to update the existing translations. For new translations, it should work when you translate the product.

Regards,
Itamar.
