This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem: Got an alert that the site moved or Copied - Action required.
I used duplicator site to copy this site to another test/staging site. Why does it show on my production site this message and not on staging site?

Solution: Moving or copying your site has implications for the Advanced Translation Editor. You need to tell WPML if your site has moved or is a copy so it knows how to treat your translations and translation memory.

Hello,

If this is a staging site, simply select Copied and the banner will be removed.

You are getting this message because of the ATE subscription linked to your site.

This is not a staging site, it is a production site. I used Duplicator to copy production site to a staging site. Since then I get that message on my production site. On my staging site i do not have this message shown.
What should I click?
