Problem: The client is experiencing issues with links not being translated correctly, resulting in 404 errors or linking to the wrong language version of the page.
Solution: We recommend two approaches to resolve this issue: 1. As a long-term solution, add
<type="link">
to your existing XML configuration. This will ensure that links are correctly translated. 2. As a short-term solution, use machine translation for the URLs and manually edit the translations if they are incorrect.
We advise the client to implement the first solution for a permanent fix. However, it is important to note that updating existing pages that use shortcodes from the previous XML configuration will be necessary to make the changes effective.
If this solution does not seem relevant to your situation, please open a new support ticket with us.
