Hello Rafasashi,
Thank you for your reply, Sure I believe it would be fine sharing the actual website links (I’m actually managing this website on behalf of a friend) and I also would like to share some weird behavior that I’m seeing from the plugin.
Website link in English is: http://www.classofclassy.com and the Arabic version is http://www.classofclassy.com/ar
Now, as for your suggestion I did try the site under incognito mode and what I got was really very interesting as the entire plugin behavior changed!
Here are the scenarios that I face, Sorry for the lengthy post ahead…
First here are the plugin settings for the English site:

And the settings for the Arabic site:

Now, first notice is that if ‘Disable Menus Query Filter’ is unchecked the only menu visible is the switcher and all other menus disappear!, I have to check that option so all the menus appear normally.
Second: From the screen shots, the plugin settings for languages on the Arabic site have the Arabic language highlighted as default while on the English site English does not have the same highlight… Not sure if that impacts any thing!
(I linked one post only “Curly hair” between the English and Arabic versions of the site, just to test it first…)
When I test the website in a normal browser window what happens is:
On the English site when I click on the linked post “Curly Hair” what opens is the Arabic version of the post instead, while on the Arabic site when I click on the same post there it opens the Arabic version as it should. And trying to use the switcher to switch between the two languages does not work…
When testing on incognito mode it works as intended, on English site the post opens the English version and on Arabic site the post opens the Arabic version and the switcher works fine to switch between the two languages, But… on the switcher,when switching between the posts, when on the Arabic version the drop-down menu for the switcher shows only the second language instead of listing both languages! (Screenshot to clarify):

Second scenario: There is an option in the plugin ‘Disable Session’ when i checked that option things changed…
In normal browser window, with that option checked I can get the English post to open the English version just fine and the Arabic post to open the Arabic version just fine, and the switcher shows both language fine all the time, however I can switch from the English to Arabic but can’t switch from Arabic to English, and the switch while on the English version of the post always shows the Arabic as selected instead of the English as it should.
On incognito mode though, with the ‘Disable Session’ option checked everything works perfect, the plugin works as intended, the switcher works as intended, no problems at all…
One final side note that is minor to me is that when the plugin is active the menu order is always left to right while on the Arabic site it should be right to left… It is like as if the plugin overrides the menu order and set it to always left to right, that is the case across all scenarios in normal and incognito modes.
And another thing is that the plugin section in the post where you enter the link to the second language remembers the changes you make on The Arabic site but always resets on the English site (it works fine still but it just resets the fields when you open the post for edit), screenshots to clarify:
English site section: https://i.imgur.com/ZxrILpd.jpg
Arabic site section: https://i.imgur.com/AyGWOL8.jpg
English site section as it should be: https://i.imgur.com/RdzDDou.jpg (the field also odes not recognize the Arabic in the link but the link works fine still)
I hope I provided enough clear details to help fixing the issue and again thanks a lot in advance for your support.
Best Regards.
