Problem: You are trying to ensure that the frontend and backend of your WordPress site are synchronized, with the language switcher visible and translations properly displayed. You noticed an issue under 'Reading' stating: 'Your home page does not exist or its translation is not published in NL, FR.' However, the home page and its translations are accessible when clicked on. The language switcher is missing, translations are not visible, and posts are not synchronized between languages. Solution: We suspect that the translations of your homepage might still be in Draft status, which could explain why you don’t see the page when logged out. Please try the following steps: 1. Go to Pages → All Pages. 2. Switch the language to Dutch. 3. Edit the homepage using the WordPress editor. 4. Click the Publish button.

If the problem persists, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum for further assistance.
Problem: You are experiencing slow site speed due to over 100 duplicate queries per page when WPML is enabled. Disabling WPML restores normal speed. The issue is traced back to the Bricks theme, particularly its handling of links and calls to
url_to_postid
function. Solution: 1. The issue primarily stems from the Bricks theme, not directly from WPML. The theme generates duplicate queries when checking links for aria attributes, which WPML then filters. 2. Switch to a default theme temporarily to confirm if the issue resolves, indicating the problem is with the Bricks theme. 3. Contact Bricks theme support to report the issue and request a fix. Provide them with details of how the theme's handling of links contributes to the excessive queries. 4. If necessary, Bricks theme developers can collaborate with WPML's developers for guidance on adjusting their code.
If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we recommend opening a new support ticket.
