Slug not working with older/newer post navigation links – 404 errors

Hi there,

Running qTranslate 2.5.34 and qTranslate slug 1.1.5. Everything works great except for the navigation link at the bottom of the page for the non-default language.

For example:
https://www.the3marketers.com/blog/ – navigation link works great (default language is English)

But
https://www.the3marketers.com/blog/fr – navigation link at the bottom doesn’t work. It reads https://www.the3marketers.com/blog/fr/blog/page/2/ instead of https://www.the3marketers.com/blog/fr/page/2/

The word “blog” is added in the French version URL when it shouldn’t. “Blog” is the directory I installed WP in, not sure if it has anything to do with this.

Nav functions used are:

<span class="next_posts_link"><?php next_posts_link(__('? Older Entries', 'themezee_lang')) ?></span>
<span class="previous_posts_link"><?php previous_posts_link (__('Recent Entries ?', 'themezee_lang')) ?></span>

Also I if disable qTranslate slug, the links are working just fine but of course the URL are not translated.

Thanks for your help.
