This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client wants to synchronize content between the Italian and German versions of their website, where some content is translated and some is not.
Solution:
1. We recommend using the WPML 'Duplicate' feature to copy content from the Italian site to the German site where translations are missing. This will ensure that changes in the Italian content are automatically applied to the German version. For detailed instructions, please visit Displaying Untranslated Content on Pages in Secondary Languages.
2. If your site uses custom fields, you can decide which custom fields should be translated and which should be copied (synchronized) between languages. This allows you to keep some fields synchronized across languages while translating others. For guidance on this process, please refer to Translating Custom Fields.
By following these steps, you can ensure that specific content remains synchronized between the Italian and German versions of your site, while still allowing for translations where needed.
