WordPress Url issue

  • Hello,

    There is a website in our management and 5 different wordpresses have been established by the person who worked before. We will turn this into a single wordpress and enter all pages, blog posts, etc. everything manually has been done by me, but we have a problem like this;

    main domain: website.com/
    english blog wordpress: website.com/blog-en/
    spanish blog wordpress: website.com/blog-es/
    french blog wordpress: website.com/blog-fr/ and so on…

    Articles:
    english blog wordpress: website.com/blog-en/article…
    and so on…

    As you can see now, our problem is that there is a wpml language language plugin on the website and while we want to run it through one wordpress, we don’t want blog links to change in any way, do we have a chance to do this with a plugin or in any way?

    I hope I could explain what I mean.

    I recommend asking in the WPML dedicated support forum. AFAIK you can configure WPML to use your existing subfolders as the language term in your URLs. To use a single WP site using those subfolders as language terms, the actual subfolders can no longer be in place on the server. They must be removed or renamed.

    Even if a custom language term were not possible for some reason, you can set up rewrite rules in .htaccess to redirect old URLs to the new. By using regular expressions, one rule could likely deal with all possible requests.
