I translated my site from catalan (main language) tu spanish, and now I would like to to the same to english, but I would like to know if I can overwrite the content of the english version with the content of the spanish version instead of the catalan version (which is availabl right now for overwriting.
I will be maybe some weeks translating to english, and meanwhile I prefer that people who enters the english version of my site, has the content in spanish than in catalan.
Languages: English (English )Spanish (Español )Italian (Italiano )

Welcome to WPML support, I am Paola and I will help you solve the problem.
In order to do that please go to your spanish page and click on edit, once you are inside go where says "Translate this Document" and check Duplicate for the English language and then click on Duplicate. So now you will have your page with the spanish content.
I already did this when I was translating from catalan to spanish.
Every time that I translated a new page I checked the box for duplicating, but as I knew I was going to translate it later to wnglish too, I checked both duplicate boxes (for spanish and for english), so now this option is no more available. If if go to the spanish version of a page, In the right side I only see the other languages (catalan and english) with a pencil.
Is there the possibility to undo the duplicate for english for doing it again from the spanish page instead of the catalan one?
