Problem: The client needed to enable automatic translation for post content while disabling it for String Translations in the WPML plugin. Solution: We advised the client to use the Translation Management dashboard (WPML -> Translation Management) to control which content should be translated. Specifically, to disable automatic translation for strings, the client should not select them in the dashboard. For detailed guidance, we recommended reading the Translation Management guide.

Problem: You are trying to use the Translation Management page to filter items by 'Translation Priority' for custom post types. This filter works for native 'post' and 'page' post-types, but not for custom post types. The 'Translation Priority' filter option is missing from the dropdown on the Translation Management page for custom post-type items. Solution: We have confirmed that the 'Translation Priority' is indeed missing from the filter dropdown in the Translation Management section for custom post types (CPTs). An internal review has revealed that the Translation Priority feature will be removed from WPML and Translation Management. This decision is part of our strategy to provide better-than-human translation that does not require review. Therefore, escalating this issue might not result in a change due to the upcoming removal of this feature.
