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

Problem:
You want to move your translated content from a development environment to a production environment.
Solution:
We recommend using the Duplicator plugin to migrate your site from staging to the live environment. This plugin will help manage the URL-replacing process efficiently. You can download the plugin from https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/.
For detailed instructions on how to use the Duplicator plugin, please refer to the documentation at https://snapcreek.com/duplicator/docs/ and watch a tutorial on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3YDQ3Ey_2wY.
After completing the migration, remember to register WPML on your new site. Log in to your WPML account, navigate to the "Sites" page (https://wpml.org/account/sites/), remove your old site/domain, add your new site, and use the new key provided to activate WPML in your new environment.

If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If you still need assistance, please open a new support ticket at our support forum.

Hi there!

For migrating your site from staging to the live environment, my recommendation is to use the following plugin:
- https://wordpress.org/plugins/duplicator/

Documentation can be found here:
hidden link

Here is a small tutorial on how to use Duplicator:
hidden link

This plugin should easily take care of the URL-replacing process.

After migration, register WPML in your new site and enter the new key:
Please Login to your WPML account >> go to the "Sites" page (https://wpml.org/account/sites/) >> Remove your old site / domain from there >> and add your new site >> it will give you a new key which you can add back in your site in Plugins > Add new > Commercial.

I hope that you will find this information helpful 🙂
