All of a sudden, when I open the translation editor, all internal links have copies of the links in the translation. It does not used to be like that

Hi
I have not heard back since my chat with Burno Kos.
This is a really big problem for the readers, but also for my standings in Google ranks. It could have a devastating effet.
Pleas get back to me!
Please also note that I live in Paris time.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi Claire,

Thank you for contacting WPML support, I'd be happy to help you with this issue.

Yes, the internal links in the Gutenberg block should be adjusted automatically by WPML. The issue occurs because the Site URL and Home URL in the general settings are http, not https as the page URL, please check the screenshot attached.

There is a code in the file wp-config.php that defines the Site URL and Home URL, I changed it to https then re-saved the page in the English language. Now you can see the internal links are adjusted correctly.

define( 'WP_SITEURL', '<em><u>hidden link</u></em>' );

define( 'WP_HOME', '<em><u>hidden link</u></em>' );

Look forward to your reply.
Thanks

Thanks a lot. It also fixes my issues with the image translation that your colleague was unable to fix the other day.
Would you be able to let me know how I fix it site-wide as it is the case on all my pages and posts.
Thanks!

Unless that is what you meant by changing it. That you changed it here.
So do I have to resave all the pages and posts in my website?
For example, it did not fix Oman: hidden link
Thanks

Hi,

Yes, you can re-save pages/posts in English language, not in Dutch. The issue is fixed on the Oman page. Except for the first link, it is a redirection:
from hidden link
to hidden link

you can update the correct link on the page in English language and recheck this.

Look forward to your reply.
Thanks

Thanks, resaves are in progress.
However, for the moement, it really varies a lot in the treatment. Do I have to wait and everything will fall into place?

For example I re-saved my page Iceland in Winter: hidden link
For NL, the images are changed but the links still lead to English articles
However for IT, the images are still the English ones but the links do lead to italien articles...

Hi,

For this page hidden link
I just edit the page in English > Click on Update and the internal links are adjusted in the Dutch language as well. There is no change with the translation process or content, just save the page in the original language English. You can also update pages/posts in bulk, Please check screenshots attached.

Look forward to your reply.
Thanks

Thanks.
As I told you I had updated / re-saved the page in English already... That was not the problem. That is pretty basic.
Now with the page that has been re-saved:
- when I open the NL version of the page, the images are all the translated ones, but when I click on links, it sends to english website.
- and when I open the italian version of the page, the images are not the translated ones, but the links do redirect to the right language in itlaian.

Hi,

Can you please recheck the issue on this page hidden link?

I just re-save the page in English again and the links in the Dutch language work properly, as you can see in my screenshot above. Maybe the internal links were not adjusted completely at that time or a caching issue on your end.

Look forward to your reply.
Thanks
