Background of the issue:
I have installed WPML on our Avada WordPress site (hidden link) and completed translating the site's contents into Spanish.

All of the site's menu links have been updated to their Spanish equivalents on the translated pages, however neither the internal content links (i.e. hidden link) nor the internal blog post links (i.e. hidden link) are pointing to the translated pages.

I have run Translate Link Targets several times without resolving this issue.

Here is the documentation that I have consulted:

https://wpml.org/faq/how-to-translate-links/

Thank you for your assistance with this issue.

Symptoms:
A review of the affected pages in Edit Translation shows that internal URLs are not being detected by WPML.

Questions:
Please instruct me how to automate the detection of internal content and blog URLs on our website.

While I am aware that I can update the internal links manually, I would not consider that a satisfactory resolution of this issue.

I was able to resolve this issue by going to the Advanced Translation Editor > Settings and selecting "Show All Links" for "Which types of links should appear in the editor?".
