 * Our website had been using xili-language plugin to allow for multi-lingual use
   until this year (French and English), when that plugin was abandoned. I just 
   installed Polylang, and went through every page on our website assigning a language
   and associating it with its translation page (example: the page “Organisme” was
   assigned French as a default, and then I found the “Organization” page, assigned
   it to English, and listed “Organisme” as the French translation). Now, when I
   am navigating on the website, if I hit the “English” button on the language switcher,
   it doesn’t lead me to the English translation of the page, it brings me to the
   English home page. In contrast, if I am navigating in English and hit the “French”
   button, it does bring me to the correct French translation page. I have tried
   editing the French pages to make sure that the translation is properly labelled,
   and I made new menus. How can I arrange it so that I can toggle easily between
   French and English pages? Thanks!
