Problem: You are using the WPML glossary feature and have added 'MILK.' as a glossary word. After adding Italian as a language, 'MILK.' was incorrectly translated to 'LATTE.' despite being in the glossary. The glossary listing appeared empty, and attempts to re-add the word indicated it already existed. Solution: We identified a bug related to language mapping in our system. As a temporary workaround, we recommend removing the custom language mapping for the affected language. This action should resolve the issue with the glossary entries not displaying correctly and being incorrectly translated. If you're experiencing this issue, we suggest trying this workaround.

Problem: The client is experiencing 404 errors when switching languages on their website. The issue arises because the permalink includes the slug of the wrong language or is not translated when switching from an English archive page back to German. Solution: We recommend checking the implementation of the taxonomy slug translations. It appears that the issue might be related to the use of the
_x()
function in the
register_taxonomy
function, which might conflict with existing translation files. To resolve this, you could try removing the
_x()
functions and setting a fixed slug to translate with WPML. Additionally, ensure that the slug translation is correctly configured in WPML. You can find guidance on translating taxonomy slugs in the WPML documentation here: WPML FAQ on translating taxonomy slugs.
