This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
You are working on a site using the WPML plugin and need to configure the language strings for the shortcode language switcher [wpml_language_selector_widget]. Specifically, you want to correct the display of 'Österreich (Österreich(Austria))' to just 'Österreich' across all languages.
Solution:
First, review the documentation on configuring the WPML shortcode for the language switcher here: WPML Shortcode API.
Next, navigate to WPML > Languages > Custom language switcher settings in your WPML dashboard. Here, you should uncheck the box labeled "language name in current language" to ensure the language names display correctly.
