Background of the issue:
I am trying to display the translated (EN) menu on the front end of my website. The links to the EN language page version are not working, even though they exist. For example: hidden link. The issue can be seen on this page: hidden link.

Symptoms:
The translated EN menu is not visible on the front end. Links to the EN language page version are not working.

Questions:
Why is the translated EN menu not visible on the front end?
Why are the links to the EN language page version not working?

Hi there,

It seems that the chat is disconnected. I'd appreciate it if you could follow the steps mentioned in the chat to sync the menu items from the WordPress Dashboard > WPML > WP Menu Sync option.

For more information:

https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-menus/

Note: Make sure you have a backup before doing so.

The reply time for a ticket is longer than chat.

Thank you.

I am not able to understand why it is necessary to translate strings – why is not possible to show translated menu from WP....

Hi there,

The URLs that are not inner pages in the menu and you used the custom URL feature of the WordPress menu should be translated via string translation.

For more information:

Thanks.
