Hi Alex,

The main issue that you're having is that your artist post type was set to do not translate, however you wanted the taxonomy that was translated to automatically attached to your post once you switch the language on the frontend.

However that won't be the case because you can't attach an English post to a French Taxonomy.

Is it that you don't want your Artist posts to be translated in your secondary language? Is it that you want the Post Type to be set back to do not translate?

The only way to get the translated taxonomy to be automatically attached to your post is when you're translating the post to another language.

The artists has to create the profile in one language and has to be autotranslated or replied to the other, without any translation in the backend o the frontend.

You mentioned this but WPML doesn't do automatic translation in the sense that you're referring to. There must be some interaction with the translation editor for the post to be translated into another language.

Thanks,
Shane
