Background of the issue:
I am trying to resolve 404 errors on all translated pages of my site hidden link. I have completed 100% translation, refreshed the permalink structure, cleared the cache, tried with another browser, and updated the original language and the translation. The issue only resolves when I change the permalink to plain, which I do not want as it makes the links with the page ID.
Symptoms:
All translated pages give a 404 error not found.
Questions:
How can I fix the 404 errors on my translated pages without changing the permalink to plain?
I can see the problem on your site. For example, when I go here, I get a 404 page.
hidden link
Please see the attached screenshot.
Please translate the homepage of your site from English into Arabic and see if it helps.
Also, please go to WPML -> Languages -> Language URL format and see if there is an error message regarding a problem enabling the option " Different languages in directories."
If none of this helps, please let me have access to your site. I'm enabling a private message for the following reply. Privacy and Security Policy

The homepage of your site is still not translated from English into Arabic. Please see the attached screenshot.
Please translate it and see if it helps to solve the problem.
If not, then we suspect a collision with the theme or another plugin might cause this problem. If possible, get your site into a minimum environment, switching to a default WordPress theme like TwentyTwenty-Four and having no plugins activated except WPML.
First, you must check if the problem persists when just the theme is switched to TwentyTwenty-Four (for example). If it persists, deactivate all plugins except WPML and its add-ons. Then, please check if the problem persists. If it does not continue, start by activating the plugins individually and checking when the issue comes back, then report to me which plugin was the culprit.

hello, now the translation of home page only is working but all other pages and posts still gives a 404 error not found and the translation is 100% completed
Have you tried my other suggestion for a minimum environment?
