Some taxonomies add a custom rewrite rule to their newly registered taxonomies. In order to add the correct translated rewrite base you need to use the following filter:
add_filter( 'wordpress_multilingual_multisite_taxonomy_base', 'we_change_faq_topic_taxonomy_base', 20, 3 ); function we_change_faq_topic_taxonomy_base( $base, $taxonomy, $blog_id ) { if($taxonomy !== "faq_topics" && $taxonomy !== "faq") { return $base; } // Category / Term if($taxonomy == "faq_topics") { if($blog_id == 11) { $base = 'wissensdatenbank/topics/'; } elseif($blog_id == 8) { $base = 'knowledge-base/topics/'; } // Post Type } elseif($taxonomy == "faq") { if($blog_id == 11) { $base = 'wissensdatenbank/faq/'; } elseif($blog_id == 8) { $base = 'knowledge-base/faq/'; } } return $base; }
