This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client is trying to configure WPML to display different languages based on the user's IP address but is unsure how to set it up.
Solution:
We currently do not support redirection based on geolocation directly within WPML. Our redirection functionality is limited to the browser's language settings. For example, if Chrome is set to English, the visitor is redirected to the English version of the website. To achieve redirection based on user location, you would need to integrate a Geolocation plugin. We recommend checking our list of compatible plugins at https://wpml.org/plugin-functionality/geotargeting/. Additionally, you might find these discussions helpful:

If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. Should you need further assistance, please do not hesitate to open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.
