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

Problem:
The client is trying to use automatic translation for various pages and posts on their website. They encountered an issue where a page translated 100% in the Advanced Translation Editor was not fully appearing on the live site. Additionally, the automatic translation status was stuck on 'Refreshing translation status' and the WPML admin bar showed 'Automatic translation status 0 / 2, 0%, less than 1 min remaining' for an extended period.
Solution:
1. We identified that the Website ID used by the Advanced Translation Editor (ATE) to process translations was different from the one registered on the ATE server. We updated the website with the correct ID, which allowed the translation to be processed immediately by ATE and the translation started to appear correctly on the frontend.
2. For a post that was stuck in an 'in-progress' state, we changed the translation method by accessing the post, clicking on the Gear icon, and selecting manual translation. This refreshed the translation method and resolved the issue.
If this solution does not seem relevant to your situation, please open a new support ticket with us.

Hi There,
Thank you for the update.

I fully understand your decision to not enable automatic translation. I've carefully checked your site again, I'm unable to trace the ID of the job which is stuck. Additionally, the API response also fails to indicate which specific job is causing the issue.

However, I'm currently investigating the issue in the environment where I've set up your site. As soon as I have any information on this, I will surely inform you.

I appreciate your patience and kind cooperation in this matter.

Best regards,
Prosenjit

Hello Prosenjit, are you sure you are reacting to the correct ticket? This issue is not about country restriction, nor did you mention troubles accessing the site before.

Hello Ivan,
I hope you're doing well.

Upon conducting an in-depth analysis, I pinpointed the root cause of the issue. The post titled "Voorbereid op pad met een pelgrimcoach," found under "Posts > All Posts," was in the translation queue when the automatic translation feature was activated. However, this automatic process was stopped after only a few sentences of the post were translated, leaving the post in an "in-progress" state.

To address this, I accessed the post and selected the Gear icon, indicating that it would be translated manually by a translator, rather than automatically. This action effectively refreshed the translation method for this post, successfully resolving the issue.

Please check and let me know if you need any further assistance in this matter. I will be happy to help.

Best regards,
Prosenjit
