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

- Synchronize local job ids with ATE jobs.
- Synchronize translators and translation managers with ATE.
- Assign translation status to duplicated content.

3. Clear the caches from your site and browser.
4. Cancel the in-progress job by following the instructions outlined here.
5. Open the default page in the WordPress editor, make a small change in the Title, save the changes to trigger a translation update, and then update the translation.
If these steps do not resolve the issue or if you encounter further problems, such as errors in the debug log or issues updating the plugin, we recommend checking your user profile settings or refreshing your WPML license data. If necessary, unregister and re-register WPML on your site.
