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

Problem:
The client is receiving a pop-up warning when trying to save the English version of a page using the standard WordPress editor or the Avada Builder. The warning indicates that the site is configured to use the WPML Translation Editor.
Solution:
If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend switching to the manual translation mode. This will allow you to have full control over the translation and enable you to use the WordPress editor or the Avada Builder without receiving the pop-up warning. For detailed steps on how to use different translation editors for different pages, please refer to our documentation:

Hi, I'm starting to translate a new site. The main content will be in Slovak. I want to insert content in other languages and later update it manually via the WP editor of the Avada theme.

I created an EN version of the introductory page via WPML. When I want to save the content of this EN version of the site, I always see a pop-up window with the message:

Warning: You are trying to edit a translation using the standard WordPress editor, but your site is configured to use the WPML Translation Editor.

What should I set in WPML and how to create language versions of individual pages so that it works without that pop up window?

Thanks, Roman

Hi Roman.

Then, you will need to use the manual translation mode so that you can have full control over the translation and this way you will be able to use the WordPress editor or the Avada Builder to create the translation.

Please take a look here:
https://wpml.org/documentation/translating-your-contents/using-different-translation-editors-for-different-pages/

I hope that you will find this information helpful.

Kind regards,
