Actually, the only image I was unsuccessful at bringing back to work on the translated site is the two-color stripe at the top bar.
The image is stored at the following URL. Notice the domain is different from the one on the translated site. Could that be the reason why?
hidden link
Also, note that the above URL is within a CSS code as follows in Custom CSS page:
/* make use of an image as background to the page title bar */
#top-bar-wrap {
background-image: url("hidden link");
!important;
background-size: cover;
}
Hi, I'm afraid adding your suggested code does not work as-is.
BTW, I want to use the same image for both languages. Can I do that?
I do not know if this is related to my other issue (which I thought I had resolved yesterday). None of my background images appear on the French side. Yesterday, I reconnected all the images, one by one, within the French domain. But, this morning, all connections to the images are lost.
See for yourself: hidden link
Please note, this is my main, live production site. I do not know how long it has been like that. All I know, the business has been completely dead for 3 months now.
If you want to use the same image inside CSS the some CSS should load on the second language unless there is something blocking.
I suggest that you test the steps below:
- IMPORTANT STEP! Create a backup of your website. Or better approach will be to test this on a copy/staging version of the website to avoid any disruption of a live website.
- - Go to "WordPress Dashboard > WPML > Languages > Language URL Format".
- Check the "Different languages in directories" checkbox.
- Click the "Save" button.
- Go to "WordPress Dashboard > Settings > Permalinks".
- Click the "Save" button to flush the permalinks cache.
This is temporary to see if the issue is still there or not after the change.
Also I'd appreciate it if you follow the steps below:
- IMPORTANT STEP! Create a backup of your website. Or better approach will be to test this on a copy/staging version of the website to avoid any disruption of a live website.
- Go to "WordPress Dashboard > WPML > Settings > Media Translation".
- Make sure that all the enabled checkboxes there are checked.
- Click the "Start" button.
- Wait for the process to finish.
Having a backup is important as the steps above follows some database queries.
The first set of steps will check if the separate domain mode that you use has anything to do with the issue?
The second set of steps will determine wether the duplicate option was somehow deactivated on the page sand the iomaes are not duplicated to the secondary language.
By duplication I mean for the images on database entries not physical image duplication.
If the issue persists, I'd appreciate it if you could give me the URL/User/Pass of your WordPress dashboard after you make sure that you have a backup of your website.
It is absolutely important that you give us a guarantee that you have a backup so if something happens you will have a point of restore.
