pamelaW	Background of the issue: I am trying to translate a product originally in Finnish using WPML. I have translated the product, and I have also translated the permalinks in WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency. Symptoms: The translated product cannot be viewed and results in a 404-error. Questions: Why does the translated product result in a 404-error? How can I fix the 404-error for the translated product?

Dražen Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Europe/Zagreb (GMT+02:00)	Hello, I checked, and this is not an issue related to WPML. If you disable WPML you can see same issue happens, and your category is not opening. This due you have set the same slug for your Product category base and Custom base, it causes issue with WordPress. hidden link I advise not using same slug acrros your website, as WordPress requires unique slugs. Hope this helps. Regards, Drazen

pamelaW	Hello! a thank you a lot! Really sorry that I mixed it up with identical slugs... it was so easy to correct and now all permalinks are rocking again! Would you please delete all videos, images and permalink from this chat. And have a great day! Kind regards, Pamela

pamelaW	Hi, I'm back again. One additional question regarding the product URL: The default language is still Finnish 🙂 and here is an example of a product URL: hidden link in English: hidden link Is there still a conflict with the Product category base and Custom base: In English the product url has "standardi-tuotteet" still in Finnish though it is translated. (Images attached) On the Finnish product page hidden link, all breadcrumbs links are working. On the English product page hidden link only socket is working, but the "standard products" is not working due to this problem. Hope you still have time to help me!
