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

Problem:
The client wanted to know if they could use WPML's Auto Translation feature on selected pages/posts and if their client could update or edit the auto-translated content afterwards.
Solution:
1. We informed the client that they could indeed select "Translate what you choose" to apply Auto Translation only to the pages/posts they want. For more details, we provided a link to a forum post: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/i-want-to-only-translate-a-few-pages-on-the-site/#post-15355927.
2. We confirmed that the client's client can edit the translation after it has been automatically translated by clicking the "pencil" edit icon.

Please note that this solution might be irrelevant if it's outdated or not applicable to your case. If so, we recommend checking the related known issues, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the issue persists, please do not hesitate to open a new support ticket with us.

Tell us what you are trying to do?

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Is there a similar example that we can see?

What is the link to your site?

Hi

If i use Auto Translation...

1. Can i just use it on some pages/posts that I choose?

2. Can my client update/edit the auto translated content after it has been done?

Thanks
Jon
