Problem: If you're experiencing issues with your Armenian homepage being automatically deleted and are unable to reassign or create a new Armenian homepage, there are several factors to consider. This problem occurs without any known user action or plugin explanation, and it persists even after following standard troubleshooting steps. Solution: First, ensure that neither WPML nor WordPress should automatically delete front pages. If the issue persists: 1. Restore the page from Trash if available. 2. Create a new homepage in Armenian. 3. Assign this new or restored page as the homepage in Settings > Reading. 4. Add translations via WPML. 5. Clear your site's cache and ensure all plugins are updated. If these steps do not resolve the issue, consider disabling all plugins except for WPML and switch to a default WordPress theme like Twenty Twenty to check if the problem persists. If the issue is resolved in this minimal setup, reactivate your theme and plugins one by one to identify the culprit. Additionally, check for any server-side rules or security tools that might be affecting your site, and review site logs for any signs of automated deletions or conflicts.
If these steps do not help, the solution might be outdated or not applicable to your specific case.

Problem: After migrating from Polylang to WPML using the 'Migrate Polylang to WPML' plugin, the client experienced issues with duplicate pages and incorrect URL structures for translated pages. Additionally, some pages like Home and Contact Us were not available for translation in the WPML Translation Editor. Solution: 1. To address duplicate pages, we advised the client to check the Languages section on the affected pages and manually link translations if they were missing. This process is detailed in our guide: https://wpml.org/faq/how-to-link-already-translated-pages/ 2. For pages not appearing in the WPML Translation Editor, we recommended making a minor content update to the original page and then saving it to refresh the translation availability. 3. To correct the URL structure for translated pages, the client was instructed to manually adjust the slugs using the language switcher in the WordPress admin bar. This adjustment ensures that the URLs reflect the desired language structure without duplication.
