Hi guys,

I am encountering a weird issue I can't seem to be able to debug.

Basically, in the whole site, there are a few contents which although they've been translated from ITA to ENG, and published, whenever you preview or try to visit them, they return a 404.

Do you know what can cause this?

here is the list:

Micronprod: The solution for Shop Floor Data Collection
hidden link

Micron: the Time and Attendance Solution
hidden link

Micronpass: the Access Control Solution
hidden link

i believe there is even more, but if you could find out what causes it I could easily fix the rest

Thanks guys
Marco

Hi Marco,

Thanks for contacting WPML forums support. I'll be glad to help you today.

I think this issue happens because of the slug before the post slug. (Kindly check the attached screenshot)

Please let me know if you use a custom slug or if these posts are a custom post type.

Best regards,
Osama

hey Osama, thanks for your reply.

Actually that is the language prefix / slug, cause if you visit
hidden link

this brings you to the ENG home page 😉 as the main site is in ITA.

Any clue?

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for your reply. I mea,n the "soluzioni" slug is not added to the English page. The ITA page URL is (hidden link), while the ENG page URL is (hidden link).

After the language prefix, there should be a translation of "soluzioni" before the page slug.

Best regards,
Osama

you are awesome - yes indeed, actually the "soluzioni" was a page which for some reason was unpublished...

Thanks for your help!
