404 for second language posts

  • I have installed Polylang a few years ago. Three languages: NL, EN, DE. All pages are show fine, in these three languages.
    Posts however do not work (it did many years). The Dutch posts (the native language of the site) are show correctly. But the English en German posts all throw a 404 error.
    Together with my webmaster, we have checked everything, but cannot find the cause of the problem. When we turn off *every* plugin except Polylang, the 404’s are still there.

    When I hover a link to a post, the correct url is given. For example:
    https://www.storymanagement.nl/en/blog/never-make-this-mistake-in-your-presentation/

    When I click it, the address bar shows an *incorrect* url for a few miliseconds:
    https://www.storymanagement.nl/en/blog//never-make-this-mistake-in-your-presentation/ (do you see the double slashes?)

    And then the 404 shows up. I have 301’d it to the post archives page, so users may find the blog post themselves. I don’t think Google appreciates this work around, so a fast solution is very welcome.

    Polylang 3.5.1
    WordPress 6.4.3
