Background of the issue:
I've translated the whole site using PTC and while most things are visible on the front end (main page, products, etc.), some pages are not visible in the new language (Polish). For example, the 'The RAD Effect' page or the 'How to use' pages. All of them have translations, which are visible if I click on 'Edit translation' but not on the front end.
Symptoms:
Translated pages are not visible on the front end in the new language (Polish).
Questions:
Why are some translated pages not visible on the front end in Polish?
How can I make the translated pages visible on the front end?
If I go into translation editor mode on a page that is not visible in Polish and save each row one by one, then Save translation, it becomes visible. But I rather wouldn't do it on all pages, row by row.
Yeah, that works because I went into translation mode, saved each row and then the complete translation - just to try out, if I do it, it will be visible on the front end.
A better example would be this: hidden link
