Problem: You are experiencing issues with redirects on your website, where Google Search Console shows problems, and the last redirect done by WPML is incorrect. You are also concerned about the canonical URL settings for different languages as suggested by Yoast SEO. Solution: 1) If you are trying to redirect a trashed URL, ensure the item is not in the trash, is existing, and is published. After confirming this, you can remove the existing redirect rule. 2) Regarding canonical URLs, these should indicate to Google which page is the original to avoid duplicate content issues. This is standard behavior and should not be changed to prevent SEO problems. 3) Ensure you are using the WPML SEO addon from WPML for optimal integration with SEO functionalities. 4) If you have doubts about the SEO settings for the default language, consulting with Yoast SEO is recommended.

Problem: The client was unable to find the migration code necessary for connecting automatic translation credits between two copies of their site. Additionally, they encountered issues with outdated WPML components and needed guidance as a beginner on how to proceed with updates and configurations. Solution: We advised the client to follow the documentation on automatic translation subscription for multiple sites, which can be found here: https://wpml.org/documentation/automatic-translation/automatic-translation-subscription-for-multiple-sites/. We manually connected the two site environments for the client and updated the WPML plugin to the latest version to ensure all components were current. We also deactivated unnecessary WPML glue plugins that were not in use.
