Hello.
Our site is Elementor based. First language Greek, second English.
I need to translate pages, but after the first translation I do not need the automatic translation functioning, since the English site might have some different or additional content. So I do not wish both languages content to be synchronized or automatically translated.
So, how can I stop this automatic messages/warnings every time I am trying to edit a page that has been translated?
First, let me explain one important thing about WPML: translations created with WPML's translation editor (like automatic translations) should never be edited with the WordPress Editor (or Elementor), and vice-versa. You either create translations with the WPML Editor, or with Elementor, never both.
If you want English pages to have different design/content from the original, you must use the WordPress Editor option, that allows you to create and edit translations using the WordPress Editor and thus Elementor:
In the pop-up, after following the steps from the link, you can select to use the WordPress Editor on the whole website. You can also make sure that "Translate Everything Automatically" is deactivated on WPML > Translation Dashboard.
🚨 Please note that switching between WPML Editor and WordPress Editor requires you to recreate the translations.
