AFter changing the language
After

When you install WPML you need to translate your content before it displays correctly in your website. Menù for examples can be translated in the WP backend inside the menù settings page.
While that is true for the menù content (which explains why you see different items) there's another part of your issue which is (i guess) CSS based.
I am just trying to guess but who wrote the CSS used some specific class/id of the original language menù which doesn't exist/ is slightly different in your different language. Try to inspect the CSS using some debug tools (like Google Chrome developer tool window) to find out which style your new menù is missing

Mobile menu on wordpress

We are using Wordpress with the Avada 5.1.6 theme and Polylang plugin.
The mobile menu does not show on the english version it shows on the portuguese version
I've inspected the generated html and the menu exists in both pages.
I tried disabling the Polylang plugin and the mobile menu does not show on any page
Thank you!
TLDR:
Don't forget to check the selected language before editing configurations that you need to share between languages!
Long description
The issue was that custom css was being applied to the english version of the website hiding the header.
The reason why the configuration for custom css was not considered initially was caused by the fact that Wordpress actually treats each language as their "own website", each one having different configurations, including custom css.
By selecting "all languages" on the Wordpress menu, it was possible to reset the custom css configuration for all languages at once.
Thanks.

wordpress version 4.0 ( same issue with lower versions)
woocommmerce 2.2
theme version 1.2.3( latest)
Themes are generally pretty barebones until you customize the hell out of them. I haven't worked with this theme specifically but for starters you'll want to edit the Menu (which is just standard Wordpress functionality, nothing to do with your theme) to create the items you want in your navigation bar.
Many themes add new menus to the left sidebar; look there for additional customization options. WooCommerce adds its own set of menus that is independent of your theme.
Lastly, click on Appearance > Themes and hit the Customize button next to your theme for potentially even more appearance options (not all themes put options here).
Beyond that you might want to get a handle on working with basic Wordpress before trying to apply themes.

Wordpress TinyMCE not converting simple 'www.sitename.com' to hyperlink, as in demos

Despite the behavior of examples shown on TinyMCE's demo pages (http://www.tinymce.com/tryit/classic.php), I am unable to get TinyMCE on my Wordpress 4.0 site to act in such a way that if you simply type "www.sitename.com" into the editor and press space, it's automatically converted into a hyperlink for http://www.sitename.com/.
To be clear, it doesn't convert into any link at all...This isn't a case of absolute vs. relative links. That's what most of the talk seems to be about when it comes to TinyMCE and link creation. ...Would that I could get to that stage!
I can find no toggle or option or plugin name to enable automatic link creation, and yet it's there in their demos on the TinyMCE's site.
Can anyone tell me how I might get this feature up and running, ideally by not adding another Wordpress plugin?
Err...That being said, I'm open to a suggestion if you have a really good one! :)
Cheers!
Even though you found a plugin, some background might help because I personally think this is a good question:
Wordpress uses TinyMCE, however the Wordpress WYSIWYG Editor is actually heavily extended and no longer fully resembles the original TinyMCE editor you see on the TinyMCE website.
In order for links to automatically render in TinyMCE, the 'autolink' plugin needs to be enabled. The following native TinyMCE plugins are used by Wordpress:
charmap
colorpicker
hr
lists
media
paste
tabfocus
textcolor
fullscreen
image
In addition to these, Wordpress also employs the following custom plugins to fill out the remainder of the functionality you normally see:
wordpress
wpautoresize
wpeditimage
wpgallery
wplink
wpdialogs
wpview
It is my belief that Wordpress left out this behavior by design. As you know, the Autolink plugin specifically converts all valid URLs to comparable anchor tags once the space or return keys are pressed. However, Wordpress does allow you to explicitly convert URLs or words to anchor tags using its own plugin 'wplink'.
It should be noted that the wplink plugin closely resembles the native anchor plugin, but is NOT the same.
With the ability to both explicitly define your links in both the visual editor (via the wplink plugin) and the Text (aka: HTML) editor, I believe the development team decided to forgo on automatically linking content in favor of allowing authors to explicitly provide links where needed.
With all of that said:
Wordpress does provide a convenient way of adding new TinyMCE plugins via its 'mce_external_plugins' filter. If you would like to add the autolink functionality without the use of an external plugin, you may download the latest TinyMCE package, upload the autolink plugin (tinymce/js/tinymce/plugins/autolink) to your theme folder, and then add the following to your theme's functions.php:
add_filter('mce_external_plugins', 'mm_add_tinymce_plugins');
function mm_add_tinymce_plugins($plugins){
$plugins['autolink'] = get_stylesheet_directory_uri().'/path/to/tinymce/plugins/autolink/plugin.js';
return $plugins;
}

Flexslider multilanguages

I'm just wondering if there's a way to have the flex slider in different languages on my site. I changed the site in both Catalan and Spanish using the WPML plugin but the slider does not have an option to change. Is there any code I can put into the php for flex slider to change it to another language?

Apply a Module to All Past Articles

I'm using Drupal for the first time and I'm hoping to move my existing website over to it. We've successfully imported our existing articles (in our own, custom format, stored in MySQL, moved over to Drupal's article system) and we're looking to get the site going. I tried installing the Colorbox module (I believe it was this one) but it doesn't seem to apply to all previous articles (the ones we imported). I've used WordPress before, and plugins (Colorbox, at least) had the ability to apply themselves to previous posts. Is this possible in Drupal?
Welcome to Drupal rar!
Colorbox module in Drupal may have different needs (probably attributes on the images) than the similar plugin in Wordpress. Although both are using the same js plugin this does not mean that they work the same way.
From the Drupal Colorbox documentation:
Load images from custom links in a Colorbox
Add the class "colorbox" to the link and point the src to the image
you want to display in the Colorbox.
Are the images set like this in your website? What is the code now for the images you want to display in a colorbox popup?
Did you follow the installation instructions for the Drupal Colorbox module?
