I've searched for any related issues and avoided creating a duplicate issue.
Please give us a description of what happened
WPML shows posts that have internal links (absolute links) in them as orphaned.
Note: Previously reported here but didn't have enough information to reproduce.
To Reproduce
Step-by-step reproduction instructions
Starting with a vanilla installation:
Install and activate Yoast SEO (free)
Run SEO data optimization
Install, activate and setup WPML with the OTGS Installer (options below)
Ignore request to install or activate WPML SEO. (This happens with or without the WPML SEO add-on.)
Go to Admin >Posts
Create a new post in an additional language. I selected Italian.
Add title and one sentence that links to the default Hello World post
Publish post
Go to Admin >Posts
See the outgoing and incoming counts are correct
Create translation of default Hello World post in same language as the new post above.
Translate each line by adding the translation in the bottom box and clicking the checkmark above the box
Click 'Complete'
Go to Admin >Posts
Select 'All Languages'
Edit the new post created above
Add a link to the translated post.
Go to Admin >Posts
Select 'All Languages'
See wrong counts for incoming. Both are for the default language post instead of 1 for the default and one for the translation.
WPML options
After plugin activation,
Click 'Register WPML'
Click 'Get a key for this site'
Login (creds are in LastPass)
Choose 'Development site'
Click continue (twice)
Copy key and past in local site
Click 'Register'
Select the following to install: WPML Multilingual CMS, String Translation, WPML SEO
Click Download (do not check 'Activate after download')
Once installed is shown for selected plugins, go to Admin > Plugins > Installed Plugins
Deactivate OTGS installer
Activate WPML Multilingual CMS
Click 'Configure WPML'
Choose a default language. I selected English.
Add additional languages. I selected Italian and Spanish.
Click 'Continue'
Choose URL format. I selected Language name added as a parameter.
Enter Site key if you didn't earlier.
Click 'Continue'
Select 'Translate What You Choose'
Click 'Continue'
Check 'Only myself'.
Click 'Continue'
Select 'No, don't send this information and skip compatibility alerts'
Click 'Continue'
Click 'Skip' (Improve your site’s translations using helpful plugins)
Click 'Finish'
Expected results
Accurate link counts
Actual results
Inaccurate link counts
Workaround
In some cases, resetting the SEO data optimization (specifically the internal link counter) will correct the counts but this would have to be done after every content change (add, edit, or delete).
Screenshots, screen recording, code snippet
Taken on different test environments with similar steps but linking at different points or to different posts.
