This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client is using a staging site and has encountered two notifications after setting it up. The first notification is about mapping the default language for automatic translation, and the second is about WPML detecting a new address for the site.
Solution:
For the first notification regarding the default language, the client should ensure that the default language (English) is correctly mapped to a supported language in WPML -> Languages settings.
For the second notification about the site address change, on the staging site, the client should select "Yes, this is a copy" to indicate that the original site is still running. In the subsequent step, the client can decide whether to share credits for automatic translation with the staging site.
If these steps do not resolve the issue, we recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that the latest versions of themes and plugins are installed. If the problem persists, the client should open a new support ticket for further assistance at our support forum.
