Problem: The client suspects that WPML might be interfering with the CSS or JavaScript behavior of the dropdowns. Symptoms include navigation dropdown menus not displaying on hover on desktop devices, despite correct HTML and CSS setup. Solution: We recommended the client to disable the WPML plugins to confirm if the issue persists. Since the dropdown issue remained even after disabling WPML, it indicates that the problem is not caused by WPML. It might be related to the code used inside the Child Theme. We suggest consulting the person who coded the theme or reaching out to the theme support at GeneratePress support.

Problem: The client is experiencing a 500 Internal Server Error when accessing translated versions of their website in languages other than the main language (Spanish). This issue occurs specifically with URLs like /nl/, /fr/, /de/, etc. The error does not affect the default Spanish pages. The problem seems to be related to the Homelengo Real Estate theme, which triggers a PHP fatal error when WPML is active or when visiting pages in secondary languages. Additionally, there are issues with internal redirects and REST endpoints used by Contact Form 7.
Solution: We recommend the following steps to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the issue: 1. Contact the hosting provider to check the server error logs for more specific details about the error. 2. Disable the Homelengo Real Estate theme temporarily to see if the issue persists with a default theme. 3. Deactivate and reactivate WPML and Contact Form 7 to check if the issue is specifically related to these plugins. 4. Review and possibly adjust the .htaccess file to normalize /wp-json with language prefixes. 5. Flush permalinks and caches to ensure no stale settings are causing the issue. 6. If the problem continues, provide the debug log to the WPML support team for further analysis.
