Problem: If you're experiencing issues where the language switcher does not work for a specific language, such as German, and navigating from the Dutch homepage to the German homepage results in a 404 'nothing found' error, while the direct URL (e.g., https://hpstaal.nl/de/home) loads fine, the problem might be related to your WordPress reading settings. Solution: We recommend checking your WordPress reading settings. Specifically, ensure that 'Your homepage displays' is set to show a static page instead of 'Your latest posts'. You can find this setting under WordPress Reading Settings. Set it to display the 'Home' page as the static page.

Problem: The client needs to make strings within a custom HTML email template used in GravityForms translatable in WPML. The client is also struggling with targeting the right text-domain for each form without needing to target each form individually.
Solution: To make the HTML email template translatable, the client should use PHP to wrap the strings in a GetText call. Here is an example of how to do this:
<?php __('Hello, world!', 'your-text-domain'); ?>
To display the string, use:
<?php _e('Hello, world!', 'your-text-domain'); ?>
It is crucial to include the 'text-domain' as the second argument in these functions. For more details on how to make your theme compatible with WPML, visit Translating the Theme You Created.
