Background of the issue:
We've been setting up automated translation jobs to one of our translation providers and were unable to send 3 language jobs - CN, JP, and PT. As we've understood, the job is routed via WPML's Translation Proxy (TP). The translation proxy has default languages configured, and if the language codes we configured on our end are not supported, then the jobs will not get through.

Symptoms:
Some languages are not supported (CN, JP, PT) and we are unable to send translation jobs for these languages.

Questions:
Can you please help to solve the issue and configure the language codes?
Could you please confirm which code field is configured on TP? Code, Default Locale, or hreflang?
Could you please advise how we can add Spanish (International) to our list of languages?

Hi Ahmed!
Thank you for your assistance. I've tried to send translation jobs and it worked for CN, but still no luck with PT and JP.

Thank you!Now it worked.
The last question - How can we add Spanish (international) to the list of languages? I couldn't find it in the list, does this mean that it is now supported at all?

Thank you

Hello,

You can add any custom language you want by doing the below steps:

1- Go to WPML → Languages.
2- Under Site Languages, click Edit Languages.
3- Scroll down and click Add Language.
4- Enter your custom language details and save.

Please make sure that the Code of the language you add is exactly the same as the one you are using in Lionbridge.

Best regards,
Ahmed Mamdouh.
