 * Hello,
 * I just started to write a blog in 2 languages: Hungarian and English.
 * If I go to choose English and I go to Meditation menu, then select ”continue 
   reading”, after that I switch to Hungarian – then that translation for that specific
   post works, but if I stay there and want to switch back to English, then it goes
   back to the home page, that it is not good.
 * How can I solve this problem?
    Thank you, Ramona
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Flanguage-switching-problem-with-polylang-plugin%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Are both pages linked? If you build a page you will get a language box (called
   languages) on the top right side of the screen. This is where you can choose 
   which language the page is but another function is that you can indicate which
   posts are their counterparts in the languages you’re writing in.
 * Eg.
 * Page 1 = Hungarian article about meditation
    The top box in the languages section
   will show Hungarian. Beneath that you will have an empty box with a plus sign
   with the English flag.
 * To add a translation in English you click on the plus sign next to the English
   flag. This will create a new page and automatically link this page to your other
   Hungarian page. (indicating it is the translation.
 * If you already have your English page but they’re not linked. You can check this
   as both pages will show a plus, once they’re linked they will show the translated
   page title, you start typing the title of this English page in the box next to
   the plus. If has an autocomplete function. You select your page title and hit
   enter. Now the pages are linked and your problem should be fixed.
