Background of the issue:
I am trying to have text editor widget links automatically update to the correct language path during page duplication. The issue can be seen on this page: hidden link.

Symptoms:
The URL paths are not updating as expected after duplication. Instead of showing the en-au version, the links are defaulting to the English version.

Questions:
Why are the text editor widget links not updating to the correct language path during duplication?
How can I ensure the links include the en-au path after duplication?

Thanks for contacting us. The links will be the same if you duplicate them. Could you please "Convert a Duplicate Into a Translation" as explained here https://wpml.org/documentation/translating-your-contents/displaying-untranslated-content-on-pages-in-secondary-languages/#how-to-convert-a-translation-into-a-duplicate and let me know if it fixes the issue?
