Problem: The client is experiencing a 404 error when trying to access wp-admin after changing to 'Different languages in directories' and selecting 'A page Edit root page'.
Solution: We recommend the following steps: 1. Ensure you have a full backup of your website and database. 2. Review the guide on setting up directories for different languages to ensure all steps were followed correctly: Language setup in directories. 3. Deactivate all plugins except for WPML and its addons to check if the issue persists. 4. Reactivate each plugin one by one, checking for the issue after each activation to identify any conflicts. 5. If the problem remains, repeat the steps using a default WordPress theme, such as Twenty Twenty-One or Twenty Twenty-Four.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, or if they seem outdated or irrelevant to your case, please open a new support ticket. We also highly recommend checking related known issues, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. For further assistance, you can reach out to us on the WPML support forum.
