 * Hello,
 * I have a problem on my website [http://les3chalets-courchevel.com/accueil/](http://les3chalets-courchevel.com/accueil/)
   
   When I switch french language to english for example, it’s working. But when 
   I go to another page, website switch back automatically to french.
 * How can I fix that?
 * Regards

 * Hello again
 * In fact the items of your english menu point to french items.
 * In your english menu (appearence>menu) you have certainly french pages for which
   you translated the “Navigation Label” (wrong way).
    Take a look under Navigation
   label/Open a link ../ Move / you have “Original” => it says you which is the 
   original page or post… If the original page is in french in your english menu
   it can’t work.
 * You must have in your english menu only english items (pages, posts..)

 * Hello !
 * Thanks for your answer.
    You’re right, I forgot that 🙂
 * Now, theres is a english menu but the problem is the same.
    When you switch to
   english langage, site switch back automatically to french when you click on the
   menu. I insert a direct link (cf “Chalet S directlink” on the english menu) and
   it’s working, but it’s not a good solution.
 * Thanks you

 * In the admin bar in “Show all languages” select only english.
 * Like this when you are in Appearance> Menu > Select a menu to edit (your english
   menu) you are sure to display only english pages, posts …
 * Don’t forget to check in Menu Settings > Theme Locations > Primary Menu English
   and of course Save menu.

   be sure website is in french).
    -> Click on dropdown -> English. -> Menu and 
   page content are in english. You confirm?
 * -> Click on the item : The “S” (menu is in english).
    -> Page is in french (and
   menu too)…

 * > -> Menu and page content are in english. You confirm?
 *  No,your items in your english menu point to french pages.
    The Malaku point 
   to the-chalet-malaku The or blanc point to le-chalet-lor-blanc etc …
 * Just put your cursor over each items and you will see where they point.
 * Could you provide a screen copy with an example in appearence > menu > menu english
   selected?

 * Maybe it’s about my wordpress theme (= Divi).
    I create english version inside
   the french page [http://hpics.li/199fc68](http://hpics.li/199fc68) (cf upper 
   right)

 * Ok we can see on your first screen that you select a french page in an english
   menu => Original: Le chalet “Le Malaku”. It’s a french page and it can’t work
   in an english menu. Even if you change the “Titre de la navigation” it can’t 
   work.
 * So click on “Pages” (on the left) and select the page about the Malaku in english
   only because you are in your english menu. And click on “ajouter au menu”.
