Category URL issues – Cloud Template + coded

Hello Guys

I hope you are doing well and are having a great new year!

We have recently started facing issues with the category URLs for the category pages created on TD composer and otherwise coded.

We had created category pages using the TD composer and added then to the menu. We also assigned the templates to the respective categories using the theme panel.

This seems to work if there is one level category as in the URL for the category shows like

url is https://www.joshtalks.com/joshkosh/career/

However wherever there is a subcategory the URL is that of the template 🙁

https://www.joshtalks.com/joshkosh/tdb_templates/interview-kaise-dein/

Which should be

https://www.joshtalks.com/joshkosh/career/naukri-chahiye/interview/

This link redirects to the category template again.

This is a bilingual website using WPML (Compatible plugin)

Now we had already have an issue with incompatibility between WPML and cloud templates. The issue is that we cannot assign category templates to translation languages as in there is no option in theme settings> categories> per category settings.

We had opened a ticket with support and you were quite helpful saying that this issue will be looked into

https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/cant-see-translated-cloud-library-template-in-per-category-settings/

WPML support was also very helpful and said that they are in touch with the Tagdiv compatibility team and this is in process.

So meanwhile we decided to code the pages in the category settings.

However this is running into major issues with the category URLs. The primary categories are all right

However the sub categories are acting very weird and redirecting to random pages or showing a 404

https://www.joshtalks.com/joshkosh/hi/%E0%A4%95%E0%A4%B0%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%AF%E0%A4%B0/%E0%A4%A8%E0%A5%8C%E0%A4%95%E0%A4%B0%E0%A5%80-%E0%A4%9A%E0%A4%BE%E0%A4%B9%E0%A4%BF%E0%A4%8F/

This seems to be very odd and so we decided to try the basics

Updated the theme to 9.5 and the plugins too
System status us all Green
Disabled all plugins and it’s not a plugin issue especially not a WPML issue

We are kind of struggling with this. I would really appreciate if you could let us know if we are doing something wrong 🙁

Dear Simion

Let me ask my developer to check if the htaccess has changed somehow. This is not a plugin issue as we have tested disabling them.

Also I could not understand what you mean by

“It would appear that there is no relation between these categories, parent/child.”

Hello

@Simion have checked the Htaccess and it is set up okay.

Thanks a lot for looking into this Bogdan

I have Emailed you wp login details on contact@tagdiv.com.

Hope this gets resolved.
