This is the ENG language : hidden link And thsi is the DE langauge : hidden link I have checked both and the content is ok in both languages. Can you please explain further what exactly you need?

nicolasF-39	HI Andreas, if you go to my front page: hidden link and look at those two pictures at the top. These are two links which direct you to different pages. The Links are within the h2 headers. How can I translate these two i do not see them in the page translation. I uploaded a screenshot so you know what I am talking about.

Andreas	Thank you for your message. I am confused now. Is this the same issue or a different one? If the original issue is resolved, I will split the issue and continue in the new topic. In general here is how to translate urls https://wpml.org/faq/how-to-translate-urls-shortcodes-and-html-attributes-using-the-advanced-translation-editor/ Regards, Andreas

nicolasF-39	Hi Andreas, I know how to translate them but they do not show up in the editor

Andreas	Thank you If ATE cannot read them , maybe you can try a small trick. Go and edit the page in original language. In the top admin bar switch to the secondary language. Edit the urls manually and click update. I hope this helps. Please let us know how it goes or if you need any further assistance. I'll gladly help you. 🙂 Regards, Andreas

nicolasF-39	Hi Andreas, I will try it but it is there maybe a way to synchronize is it faster when i make changes so real life changes show up, because I also added a Button on a template and it still does not show?

Andreas	As I told you in a previous message, we are limiting each topic to one issue. I would like to try the trick I have mentioned and if you are still having issues, please leave a reply here and I will create a new topic in order to discuss it there. I hope you can understand. Regards, Andreas

nicolasF-39	Hello Andreas, ok i got it thanks, but it still does not show the language switcher button on that page in the frontend. I also tried to add your wpml shortcode for the switcher and it only shows in the backend.

Andreas	Thank you Would you be willing to provide me with WordPress credentials so I could investigate the issue directly? And send me this: - a page or page in question (at least one example) where the issue is to be seen - screenshots would also help me understand this - screenshots on that post/page https://wpml.org/purchase/support-policy/privacy-and-security-when-providing-debug-information-for-support/ I marked your next reply as private so that you can safely add credentials.
