Menu problem after update from Lay 5 to 11
-
Hello,
I am troubleshooting a small website designed by someone else. It was recently hacked through an older version of Wordpress. I have updated Wordpress, PHP and plugins. Version 5 of Lay theme is used. I tried updating to the current version 11 (big jump), but there are menu problems so I have reverted.
Link to website: https://ifbproductions.fr
Under v11, the menu item "VOIR LES FILMS" (https://ifbproductions.fr/category/films/), incorrectly displays the same content as the menu item "PROJECTIONS" (https://ifbproductions.fr/projections/).See images:

Thanks!

hey! if i was you i would check
in appearance -> menusif the right pages are linked there.
also, i think one of the pages is a category page?
you could

just go to that page, click "copy to pages"
and then link that new page in appearance - menus
also, i would try going to settings -> permalinks
and click "save" there. this refreshes links -
Thank you! I will try your suggestions...

Thank you, @arminunruh. It was also necessary to click on "Update" in a few other pages, but your suggestion worked.
