Background of the issue:
I am trying to use a filter with the plugin 'Filter Everything' on my site hidden link. The filter works for both the English and German versions of the website, except for the product attribute 'Brand'. I have updated all plugins and attempted to set translations manually, but that did not work, so I deleted the manual translations.
Symptoms:
The translation of the product attribute 'Brand' does not translate to German, affecting the filter functionality.
Questions:
Why is the 'Brand' attribute not translating to German?
How can I fix the translation issue for the 'Brand' attribute?
Now there are at least Brands visible in German but they dont have any products attached. I also tried having the same slug for EN and DE but that also did not solve the issue. Now each slug is again EN = "brand" DE = "brand_de".
When I open a brand page, such as hidden link, and attempt to switch the language, the page redirects incorrectly, indicating that the translation is not properly linked. To investigate further, I would like to request temporary access to your staging site (both wp-admin and FTP).

I may also need to replicate your site locally. For this, I would temporarily install a plugin such as Duplicator or All-in-One WP Migration to create a copy of your site and its content. Once the issue is resolved, I will delete the local copy. Please let me know if this is acceptable.
IMPORTANT:
Please make a full backup of your site (both files and database) before providing access.

Hi,
Thank you for providing access. I reviewed the filter configuration, but it’s currently set to "Filter by" -> "Post Author", which remains the same across both languages.
I also attempted to access hidden link, but it now returns a 404 error. Could you please clarify how I can reproduce the issue using a brand?
I came across your message by chance, as I didn’t receive an email notification—apologies for the delayed response.
Since I haven’t yet found a solution to the issue, I’ll reconstruct it and provide a detailed reply in my next message. Please give me some time to do this properly - 24h.
