<b>Background of the issue: </b>
I translated my page to German and French. However, the German homepage links to the French webpages, and the footer links to the original English pages. I increased the WP memory limit with the following lines in wp-config.php:
I clicked on 'translate link targets' in WMPL > Settings. I deactivated the W3 Total Cache plugin, but the issue persisted. WPML is up to date. Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link
<b>Symptoms: </b>
German homepage leads to French and English landing pages instead of German ones.
<b>Questions: </b>
How can I solve the issue of the German homepage linking to the wrong translations?
Why are the URLs in the footer leading to English pages instead of German ones?
1.- If you are translating the homepage using ATE, I recommend you to check this documentation that might help you find and translate the links: https://wpml.org/faq/how-to-translate-links/
The translation of the footer worked. (You did a great job!)
Regarding the translation of the homepage: the proposed solutions didn't help, but the documentation already states that "there is a known issue with translating internal links inside buttons, calls to action, and other similar blocks." The URLs are in calls to action, and neither the ATE translation nor "Scan now and adjust links" in WPML > Settings > Translate Link Targets solve the issue. To fix that, the documentation mentions I need to ask the support help.
Hi Igor,
Thank you very much for your message and I am happy that the footer issue is solved 🙂
1.- Please share a link to a video describing the steps to reproduce the issue with the links on the homepage, that way I can reproduce it exactly as you.
