Problem: The client was unable to see the German flag on the 'IMPRINT' page and had issues with the language switcher in the footer links. They were unsure how to link the translated pages correctly. Solution: 1. We advised the client to ensure that the translations are saved and marked as 'Published'. Often, visibility issues occur if the translation is 'waiting for review and approval' or saved as 'draft'. 2. We instructed the client to check if the translated pages are correctly linked. For this, they should see a pencil edit icon next to the page under the 'Pages' list in the backend, indicating that the translation exists. If there's a '+' icon, it means no translation is linked. 3. To link existing translations, we provided a documentation link: https://wpml.org/faq/how-to-link-already-translated-pages/ 4. We discovered that the 'Jobs' page had issues due to multiple deletions and creations, leading to unlinked translations. We suggested checking the 'Trash' section to fully remove any previous instances before attempting to link translations again.
