Problem: The client is experiencing an issue where navigating to
www.domain.com
redirects to the homepage of the main language instead of redirecting to the correct language version of the site. Solution: We recommend informing the hosting support about the issue with WPML when using NGINX and a different domain per language and asking to review the DNS settings of the server. Please note that the solution provided might be irrelevant if it's outdated or not applicable to your case. If after checking the known issues and confirming that you have the latest versions of themes and plugins the problem persists, we highly recommend opening a new support ticket. You can do so by visiting the WPML support forum.
Problem: The client wanted to hide the main language on the front end for non-admin users because it was not ready for public viewing. They were also considering switching the main language to a translated language and were concerned about potential data loss or issues.
Solution: We informed the client that it is not possible to hide the default language using WPML's 'Hide languages' feature, as it only allows hiding secondary languages. We suggested using a Maintenance Mode plugin to hide the entire site from users until it is ready. Here is an example of such a plugin:
Additionally, we advised that if the client has original content that is not ready to be published, they should set this content as 'Draft' in WordPress. This is not related to WPML, as WPML only handles translations of the original content. For more information on drafts, please visit: WordPress Drafts
If the solution provided here is not relevant to your situation, either because it's outdated or not applicable to your case, we recommend opening a new support ticket. We also highly recommend checking related known issues at WPML Known Issues, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If you need further assistance, please contact us in the WPML support forum.
Problem: The client wanted to display certain products only in specific languages without translating them. Solution: We explained that our WooCommerce Add-Ons require a translation for each product. However, we suggested creating the product in the default language and then setting up a 301 redirect to the product translation in the language where the product should appear. This way, the product will only be visible in the selected language.
If this solution does not apply to your situation, or if it seems outdated, we recommend opening a new support ticket. We also advise checking the related known issues, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and ensuring that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins.
