Marketing Tech	Background of the issue: We duplicate our pages from PT-BR to PT-PT following this WPML documentation: https://wpml.org/documentation/translating-your-contents/displaying-untranslated-content-on-pages-in-secondary-languages/. After duplicating the page, we noticed that some internal links are redirecting to the wrong URLs. Symptoms: On the page hidden link, within the dropdown, one of the links redirects to the /zh-tw/ version instead of /pt-br/, which is the expected link since the page was duplicated from the PT-BR version. Questions: Could you please help us understand why this is happening and how to resolve it?
