WPML & CP issue with categories

  • We have a website that we are setting up for use with WPML and it uses the Custom Permalinks plugin for mapping the permalink for the categories.

    I have the following versions installed:

    • WPML: v4.6.12
    • Custom Permalinks: v2.7.0

    The custom permalinks were added when creating the categories initially and show as per the below
    DEFAULT LANGUAGE – WORKS (English)
    /industry-sectors/
    /industry-sectors/infrastructure/

    When viewing the “Taxonomies Permalinks” for the Custom Permalinks plugins, these are the values shown
    CUSTOM PERMALINKS – DOESN’T WORK – 404.php
    /en/industry-sectors/
    /en/industry-sectors/infrastructure/

    CURRENT SETUP FOR TRANSLATED LINKS – WORKS
    /fr/secteurs-dactivite/

    CURRENT SETUP FOR TRANSLATED LINKS – DOESN’T WORK – 404.php
    /fr/secteurs-dactivite/infrastructure-fr/

    When using the Language selector in the menu and switching from the default language to French, this is the URL which appears is shown when I hover the cursor over the French flag.
    DEFAULT – /industry-sectors/infrastructure/
    SWITCH URL – /fr/category/secteurs-dactivite/infrastructure-fr/

    While the WPML switch URL above does show the data, but the permalink doesn’t work as expected.

    I investigated and this is a certified plugin that states to work correctly with WPML.

    While the WPML switch is an issue, the issue is that the CP plugin isn’t working as expected

    Any assistance would be great.
