Magento translation and url key

I have a Magento website with some pages linked to main navigation. For example, in my default view (Italian) I have www.example.com/italian-url-key Then I created another page for English view with url www.example.com/english-url-key

So, when I am on the italian version of the page and try to switch to english version, this is the url that magento generate: http://www.example.com/italian-url-key/?___store=english&store=&___from_store=default and on click it gives me 404 page.

How can I fix it? I need that this 2 pages should be linked, also if url key is different.

Many thanks!

Out of the box Magento does not support URL Translation, both pages need the same URL key. Check instructions from the Magento Docs on how to translate CMS pages.

To translate a CMS page, you must create a new page that has the same URL Key as the original, but assigned to the specific store view.

So you will either have to stick to one languages for your URLs or develop/acquire a module to do this for you. The magento-language-roots or CMSRewrites modules both look like they will achieve this for you.

You may also want to consider adding Hreflang tags to your head.phtml as you have a multi-lingual site.
