Subject: Newspaper Header Logo always links to the default language homepage when using Polylang
Hello tagDiv Support,
I am using the latest version of the Newspaper theme (v12.7.6) together with Polylang on a multilingual news website.
My website structure is:
– English (default): https://yogyapost.com/
– Indonesian: https://yogyapost.com/id/
The multilingual setup is working correctly:
– Language switcher works properly.
– hreflang tags are correct.
– Canonical URLs are correct.
– Open Graph URLs are correct.
– Rank Math SEO outputs the correct metadata for both languages.
However, I have one issue with the Header Logo element.
The issue
The header logo always links to the default language homepage:
even when the visitor is browsing the Indonesian version of the website.
For example:
Current page:
https://yogyapost.com/id/2026/07/09/example-article/
Expected logo link:
https://yogyapost.com/id/
Actual logo link:
https://yogyapost.com/
Inspecting the HTML shows:
My desired behavior
I would like the logo to behave as follows:
– On English pages:
– Home → https://yogyapost.com/
– Articles → https://yogyapost.com/
– On Indonesian pages:
– Articles, categories, tags, archives, search results, etc. → https://yogyapost.com/id/
– (Optionally, I would like the Indonesian homepage itself to continue linking to the English homepage, but my main concern is that all Indonesian content pages should return visitors to the Indonesian homepage.)
What I have already checked
– Newspaper Theme v12.7.6
– Polylang
– Rank Math SEO PRO
– WordPress.com Business
– Header Builder (Cloud Templates)
I also checked the Header Logo element but could not find any option to configure the destination URL of the logo.
My questions
1. Does Newspaper officially support language-aware logo URLs when using Polylang?
2. Is there a built-in setting to make the Header Logo automatically link to the current language homepage?
3. Is there a hook or filter that developers can use to override the Header Logo URL?
4. If this is not currently supported, is it considered a feature request or a known limitation?
Thank you very much for your assistance.
Hi,
Unfortunately I have very little experience with Polylang.
I searched a bit and found a discussion about it in this topic -> https://generatepress.com/forums/topic/polylang-navigation-logo-linking/
Maybe it’s the same setting mentioned there -> https://prnt.sc/EGGqMs82HUtz Please check there.
Thank you!
