Problem:
The client is trying to add a translation to a blog post using the WordPress Editor, but the translated blog post is not automatically connected to the original English post and exists as a separate entity unless manually connected.

Solution:
The problem turned out to be because of NGINX security headers that they added recently to improve the website security. Specifically these two:

Removing these headers fixed the issue.

Issue:
The client wanted to confirm information about browser language-based redirection in WPML and how it affects page load time and interaction with Google indexing.

Solution:
1. Browser language-based redirection affects only the first time a user visits the site, not each time they navigate to a new page. Does not double the charging time; Generally, it is just a page refresh that takes no more than 1-2 seconds.

2. Redirecting can affect how Google bots crawl and index pages, as they could be redirected to a different language than the one they were initially trying to crawl. This is still an issue and applies to any type of redirect, including those configured on the Nginx server. It is recommended to use a 301 redirect in Nginx to inform Google bots about the permanent nature of the change.
