[Resolved] Content in this language cannot be automatically translated unless you map it to
This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: The client added a custom language and encountered an error stating that content in this language cannot be automatically translated unless mapped to a supported language. Solution: We recommend duplicating the content from English and Arabic to the respective custom language. It is important to understand that automatic translation is not possible when the original language and the target language are the same. To resolve this issue, you should map your custom secondary language to your site's default language. For detailed instructions, please refer to our documentation on Using Automatic Translation with Custom Languages.
Please note that this solution might be irrelevant if it's outdated or not applicable to your case. If the issue persists, 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. If you still need assistance, please do not hesitate to open a new support ticket in our forum.

Hi there!
1. I cannot access to the domain hidden link it says DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN
Please go to WPML --> Support --> Troubleshooting and click on Set language information
2. If you don´t have activated the automatic translation no, please go to WPML --> Settings and make sure you have selected Translate some, so you can decide what to translate
Once I lost the Arabic language I restored my site with the last backup, Is that any step once custom language and map custom language then I don't lose work my old work.
According this video hidden link I keep the same setting, But still i am getting same issue - Content in this language cannot be automatically translated unless you map it to a supported language.
I can provide you wp-admin if you can check for me.

I have created again the custom language and it seems to work.
Please go to WPML --> Languages --> Edit language and add the custom flag
Also, if you want to translate everything automatically you will need to activate again from WPML --> Settings change to Translate everything
