Background of the issue:
This is the production site and use Smartling for all translations. The content is reviewed and approved by professional linguists before being imported into WordPress. We want to streamline our publishing workflow by bypassing the WPML review step.
Symptoms:
Translations in the WPML editor are being marked as 'flagged for review' (orange flags), creating unnecessary manual work.
Questions:
Can the 'flagged for review' feature in WPML be disabled or bypassed globally?

Hi,
We are aware of this problem and have escalated it to our developers, who will fix it in an upcoming version of the Advanced Translation Editor. Meanwhile, we can only provide a workaround to edit the translation in the Advanced Translation Editor and unflag those flagged sections.
I'll add this ticket to our internal tracking of this problem and update you when the fix is released.
This problem usually causes the translation not to be completed and stay in the status of in progress. In WPML -> Translation Dashboard, you should see which translation jobs are still in progress.
Do you have an ETA on this? Our team currently needs to manually sync a large number of translation jobs because of this issue, which is impacting productivity.

Our development team has identified the cause of the issue and it has been decided to introduce a new status specifically for these segments. They will be displayed as “content modified” (blue status). This will help users easily recognize that there is newly detected content, while still allowing them to complete translation work without interruption.
This enhancement is already in progress and is being prioritized, since it is affecting multiple clients. We expect it to be addressed soon.
