Problem: You are using WordPress with WPML and have set up a second language. You want the second language version of a page to translate independently automatically when using the copy language page function, without manually clicking 'Translate Independently'. Solution: Currently, there is no bulk option to set pages to translate independently automatically. However, you can achieve a similar result by following these steps: 1) Ensure that the WordPress Editor is set as the translation method in the right sidebar of the original content. 2) Click the "+" icon to open the translated post in the WordPress Editor. 3) The post will initially appear empty. Click "Copy from English" in the right sidebar to copy the original content into your translated post or page. You can then edit it as needed. For more detailed guidance, visit Displaying Untranslated Content on Pages in Secondary Languages.
