janyE	Background of the issue: Hello, the website hidden link has 3 languages: Dutch, French, and English. The URLs for French and English are hidden link and hidden link respectively. However, the standard language Dutch does not have a language tag in the URL. Symptoms: SemRush rapport says that I have 77 hreflang conflicts within page source code. I think it is because there is no /nl in the URLs. Questions: Is it correct that the hreflang conflicts are due to the absence of /nl in the URLs? How can I add /nl to the URLs for the Dutch language?

WPML Supporter since 12/2018 Languages: English (English ) Spanish (Español ) German (Deutsch ) Timezone: America/Lima (GMT-05:00)	Hello, You can go to WPML > Languages > Language URL format and enable the option "Use directory for default language" but you might need to create a root page or a redirect template so that users will be redirected from sitename.com to sitename.com/nl. Guide: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/language-url-options/#displaying-your-sites-default-language-in-a-directory Complete guide: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/language-setup/directory-default-language/ Now, I do somehow doubt that the issues that SemRush is indicating are related to that. Maybe you could provide us more details about what SemRush is reporting? Best regards Andreas
