Overview of the issue

When using BuddyBoss with WPML, you might experience the following issue: member and group hover cards fail to load in secondary languages. This happens because an extra trailing slash is added to the BuddyBoss REST API endpoint, causing AJAX requests to fail.

Workaround

To resolve the issue temporarily:


  1. Go to Settings > Permalinks in your WordPress dashboard.

  2. Remove the trailing slash from the permalink structure. Example:

    • Change from: /%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%/

    • To: /%year%/%monthnum%/%day%/%postname%
