Problem: The client is experiencing incorrect URL redirection when switching languages using the dropdown flag on the front page of their multilingual website. The URLs are pointing to album pages instead of the homepage in different languages. Solution: We realized that the theme's Customizer was using a different frontpage setting. Ensure that the theme's Customizer settings for the front page are correctly configured. In this specific case the issue might be due to the front page being set to a 'Single Album' which could confuse URL redirection. Changing this setting to a static page like 'Homepage' might resolve the issue.
If these steps do not resolve the problem or if the solution seems outdated or irrelevant to your case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the issue persists, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum for further assistance.
