Works well!

Works well for me!

Very helpfull

by classikd·9 months ago

Thank for the plugin.
I struggled for hours to make the plugin work with Polylang and avoid 404s, for those who have the problem the solution is simple you have to go in Polylang settings and check the “The front page url contains the language code instead of the page name or page id”, otherwise it will not work.

Works like a charm
