Problems with WOO menu links | ww.wp.xz.cn

Hi,
An other issue 🙂
I am using this menu plugin, and it seems there is some sort of incompatibility in the way links are re-written …
https://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/wp-megamenu/

I assume sublanguage might have something to do with it as it re-writes the menu slugs.

So the links to Woocommerce product categories if used in the menu, end up looking like this http://mysite.com/%product_cat-slug%/product-name/
And the obviously lead to a 404 page —

I noticed that without the menu plugin but with sublanguage installed, the URLs are somehow overwritten by sublanguage as they look like

http://mysite.com/product_cat/product-name/ – and when clicked, the sublanguage is somehow redirecting to the right URL

Can you help?

Thank you !

Hello,

Yes you’re right, Sublanguage overwrite custom post type and custom taxonomy slugs in url. By default it uses the post type or taxonomy name (eg. “product_cat”) instead of slug (“product-cat”). Its a bit long to explain why, but it’s the best way I found so far.

Now I don’t really get why this bug happens, but maybe providing proper translation will just fix it. So go to “Settings > Sublanguage”, Find “Product Catergory” in the list after “Translate Taxonomies” and click “options”. Then provide a value in “term link” for all languages (even if it is the same as the placeholder).

Please tell me if it still doesnt work, i’ll have a look to this megamenu plugin.

HI,
I tried that, and just checked and did it again. Nothing changed unfortunatelly .. still having the “%product_cat-slug%” in the URL 🙁

Thanks!
