I am trying to pull a view from a sub site with includes an action button with a link to a post form in the sub site.

The blog switch takes place but does not land on the proper page because the URL is wrong. An "?lang=en" is inserted between the domain name and the rest of the URL (whether I use [wpv-bloginfo show='url'] or the hard path) and all the "/" are replaced with "%2F".

Any idea why this is happening and how to address it?

Hello,

Please elaborate the questions with more details.
1) How do you "pull a view from a sub site"?
With custom PHP codes? please provide detail steps to reproduce the same problem

2) Are you suing WPML plugins?

1) I pull the view as instructed here https://toolset.com/forums/topic/loading-a-view-from-one-site-on-another-in-wordpress-multisite/ The view is in the sub site, the pull is in the main. When I hover over the link in the main, the "/" are correct but it already has inserted the "?lang=en". When I land in the sub, the "/" have been replaced with "%2F".

2) I do have the WPML plugins in the network but they are currently inactive. One problem at a time as I develop 😉

I did a full reset on WPML and the problem is resolved.
