Gilbert	Hello, We are having a strange issue with the SHOP page in Thai language. If we use the language switcher, it does get us to the correct Thai shop product page but the text isn't translated. If we use the link in our synched navigation menu in the Thai version, we get the translated shop page but NOT the products below !!! We tried deleting and editing the shop page to no avail... Can you assist? hidden link (ENGLISH SHOP) hidden link (With the language switcher, correct product, wrong text) hidden link (navigation menu link, correct text, NO products) Thank you

Have you tried using the same shop page slug as in English (e.g. /shop/)? Using Latin characters may help avoid encoding-related issues. Currently it is /ร้านค้า/. If the issue still persists, I recommend enabling debugging, reproducing it, and sharing the full error message from your debug.log file. Please follow these steps: 1. Enable WordPress debugging by editing your wp-config.php file. Add (or modify, if already present) the following lines before the comment /* That's all, stop editing! Happy publishing. */: define( 'WP_DEBUG', true ); define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true ); define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false ); 2. Reproduce the issue 3. Check the debug.log file located in /wp-content/debug.log 4. Copy and paste the full error message here

Gilbert	Hello Andrey, Thank you for your message. We didn't create the page separately in Thai. We translated it in the WPML new editor. We then used the WPML Menu Sync to add it to the navigation menu. This is why when you switch from the English to the Thai it shows the products (but strangely the English text that we added), but if you click on the menu item, it shows the correct translated text but not the products !! It is very strange... did you try it on our live website? hidden link Activating the Debug doesn't help as there are no errors thrown by the system. Would you like an admin access to check it out? Again, thank you for your assistance.

Andrey WPML Supporter since 06/2013 Languages: English (English ) Russian (Русский ) Timezone: Europe/Kyiv (GMT+03:00)	Thank you for your feedback. I have tested it already on your site. I need to request temporary access (wp-admin and FTP) to your site—preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible—in order to be of better help. When you log in to leave your next reply, you will find the needed fields below the comment area. The information you will enter is private, meaning only you and I can see and access it.
