Background of the issue:
I am trying to display the menu in different translated languages on my site hidden link using WPML. I created the menu in Appearance > Menu.

Symptoms:
The menu is displayed in the default language (English) but disappears in the other two translated languages.

Hello,

1) Make sure pages are translated and you have translated menu:

- https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-menus/

2) If you are using some header template and adding your menu there also, make sure you have translated header template, for example for Elementor:

https://wpml.org/documentation/plugins-compatibility/elementor/#:~:text=WPML%20String%20Translation-,How%20to%20Translate%20Elementor%20with%20WPML,-With%20WPML%2C%20you

Let me know.

Regards,
Drazen

Hello,

I followed the tutorials but it doesn't work..

The menu and footer no longer appear in translated languages. Can I give you access to the site so you can check it out for yourself please?

Thanks in advance

Hello,

sure, but please explain how you are adding the menu to the default language, and if you are using any header template.

I have enabled private reply for you so you can add access details.

Please make sure to create a backup, before doing any actions, just in case.

Regards,
Drazen
