Problem: The client is unable to create the same slug for different language categories in WPML. Solution: 1.

Problem: The client wants to translate post comments using WPML. Solution: We currently do not support direct translation of user comments. As a workaround, you can display all comments from all languages on all translations of your site. This ensures that the original comments are visible across all language versions. Please follow the steps provided by my colleague in this forum thread: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/synchronize-comments-on-duplicate-content/#post-5971107.
If this solution doesn't look relevant, please open a new support ticket here: WPML support forum.
Problem: The client wants the page URL to include special characters, similar to how it was displayed when using Weglot, but is now using WPML and the URLs do not retain the special characters.
Solution: We recommend the following steps to include special characters in the slugs: 1. Consider using custom code to allow accents in permalinks. You can refer to this discussion on WordPress Stack Exchange. However, we cannot guarantee compatibility with WPML. 2. Use a third-party plugin like Permalink Manager Pro, which allows special characters in permalinks. More information can be found here: Permalink Manager Pro Documentation. 3. Manually encode the slug using a service like URL Encoder. After encoding, paste the encoded slug in the Quick Edit post section in the admin area for the Portuguese language version of the post. For more details on how WordPress handles slugs, you can refer to the WordPress Developer Documentation.
