Problem: The client is experiencing issues with automatic synchronization of menus in different languages, despite all pages being translated. Solution: We recommend trying the "Fully Custom" approach for creating and managing menus manually. This method allows for more control over the translation and synchronization of menu items.

Problem: The client has automatically translated their website and found that the URLs have been translated as well, which is causing issues with SEO and redirections. They are looking to revert the URLs to their original state, preferably only for blog articles.
Solution: We recommend checking the translation of the primary language page to see if the URL slug string is visible. If it is not found there, proceed to search for the string "address" in the string translations. If the string has been translated, you should undo the translation. If you're experiencing this issue, follow these steps to correct the URL translations: 1. Edit the translation of the primary language page to look for the slug string. 2. If the slug string is not there, go to the string translations and search for "address". 3. If you find that "address" has been translated, undo the translation.

Problem: The client needed assistance with an issue related to translating taxonomy terms, as described in a video they shared. Solution: We advised the client to navigate to WPML → Taxonomy Translation and use the drop-down menu to select the taxonomy they wish to translate. Then, they should click the plus icon to add or adjust the translations and remove the '-es' if necessary. For more detailed instructions, we provided a link to our documentation: Translating Post Categories and Custom Taxonomies. If that method does not resolve the issue, we recommended going to Posts → Categories, selecting the Spanish language, and editing the category to adjust it.

Problem: The client needed assistance with reclaiming WPML credits after transitioning their website from WordPress to Shopify and no longer having backend access.

The client had an existing balance of credits, and with the addition of the reclaimed credits, their total is now updated. The client can view their credit balance on their WPML account page. Furthermore, we advised the client on how to remove the WPML key for the site that has been moved to Shopify through their WPML account sites page.

Problem:
If you're trying to add a language switcher to your menu instead of the footer or if you're facing issues with the styling of your language switcher, such as wanting a floating language switcher or dealing with a call-to-action (CTA) that is cut out on different devices and resolutions.
Solution:
To add a language switcher to different locations on your site and customize it to your needs, we recommend following these guides:
For a floating language switcher, please refer to the guide on creating a custom language switcher.
If you encounter a CTA that is cut out, this issue is related to your theme's CSS and is beyond the scope of our support. We suggest learning more about CSS and how to adjust your design for various devices and resolutions through online resources.
