Issue with page titles in alternate language

Resolved

Requested: 1 year and 2 weeks ago

Hello,

We have a site where we are using WPML for translations (En/Fr). Lately we’ve noticed that some pages show the English title on the French side.

From the link I shared, in the menu on the left:

“GM Fish” should show as “Saumon OGM” and  “Issues” should be “Enjeux” to name a couple of examples.

We’re using Divi theme and no cache plugins.

  1. Hi Simon,

    While I’m not very familiar with WPML or how it functions, I am willing to dig in a bit and see I can figure out what is going on.

    Can you provide me with a bit more information. Maybe one of these items:

    1. Temporary admin access to the site.
    2. A database dump that I may use for a local test environment.

    Thank you!

    Mat Lipe

  3. Hi Simon,

    Great! Can you send me a link to where I can see the issue happening on staging?

    Have a great night!

  5. Hi Simon,

    I have tracked down the issue to current setting for title in the Advanced Sidebar Menu meta box.

    Each page has a meta box which looks like this:

    This setting will override any other setting for what title will display in the sidebar menus.

    Changing the title here will fix the issue.

    Have a great day!
