    Hello,

    Sorry for my bad english, I’ll try to explain myself as best as I can.

    I’ve created 2 menus for 2 languages and assigned them to each language. From now on, everything is fine.

    The problem is when I want to link the french pages in the french menu, I can only select english pages from the left menu in WordPress, I don’t see the french pages so I can’t link to them, even if I choose “View All”.

    What am I doing wrong ?

    Do I have to put “Links” instead of “Pages” for the french menu ?

    Thanks for your help !

    Hello
    You must link your translated pages in the setting “Pages > “All pages”.
    I suggest you look the documentation:
    https://polylang.wordpress.com/documentation/setting-up-a-wordpress-multilingual-site-with-polylang/translating-posts-or-pages/

    I have a same problem
    i use nav menu and have 4 pages in my menu .
    each page has a translation but not work true.
    main page and translation of that has 2 different page id. when i set page id handily it works (host/?page_id=1 for main page and host/?page_id=2 for translated page) true but the plugin cant switch between main page and translation page based on selected language.
    bad english ??

    Could you provide a copy screen of your panel pages.

    Just a reminder of the steps to follow:

    1) Activate Polylang
    2) Create your languages => Settings > Languages > Tab Languages
    3) Choose your permalinks => Settings > Permalinks
    4) Create your static front pages (if necessary) per language
    => Pages > Add new
    4.1) Define your static front page => Settings > Reading
    5) Choose your Polylang settings => Settings > Languages > tab “Settings”
    6) Create your widget => Appearance > Widgets
    7) Create your content which go in menus
    8) Create your menus => Appearance > Menus. Put in your menus at least one page or post if you want they appear on your website.

    thanks .I check all the steps and every things are OK!
    i found a solution but i think its not the best solution !
    add two menu,add some links with true pages permalinks ( based on main or translation menu ) and titles.
    it work true but i guess there is a better solution .

    add some links with true pages permalinks ( based on main or translation menu ) and titles.

    Could you give an example to well understand your problem.

    Hello Christl,

    Thanks for your help !

    My pages are linked together. In “pages – all pages”, I only see english pages. To see the translated pages, I have to click on the pencil icon associated with the english posts. Every pages is created and functional, I just don’t know how to put my french pages in my french menu…

    Is it possible to access the french pages when I create my french menu ? Or do I have to put static links instead of pages ?

    Thanks !

    I only see english pages.

    In your panel pages: on the top right click on “screen options” and select the french language.

    You see now your original pages (check icon) and their translations (pen icon).

    After that could you provide a copy screen of your panel pages (FR/EN)
    and a copy screen of your french menu with the “screen options” open.

    Everything looks fine in screen options.

    I don’t know how to put print-screen here, so I put it on my server, you can see it at those URL:

    Clik on “Show all languages” because there is an admin language filter on English (US flag).

    Where can I find “show all languages” ?

    (@chrystl)

    In your wp admin bar: between “+ NEW” and “Events”.
