Problem: The client needed to serve the same English content under specific country-based URLs for the UK and AU markets without translating the content, while preserving WPML compatibility. They faced issues with using 'uk' as a language code in WPML, which is reserved for Ukrainian, and encountered a 'Too Many Redirects' error when duplicating products. Solution: We advised the client that duplicating the content for UK and AU markets is the best approach. For duplicating content without translation, we recommended following the guide on displaying untranslated content in secondary languages, available here: https://wpml.org/documentation/translating-your-contents/displaying-untranslated-content-on-pages-in-secondary-languages/. Additionally, since 'uk' is reserved for Ukrainian, we suggested adding Ukrainian as a language to use 'UK' in the URL and then manually translating or duplicating the content. The issue of 'Too Many Redirects' was addressed in a separate ticket.
