Problem: You are using WPML CMS license but want to avoid the Translation Management flow. Solution: Translation Management is an integral part of WPML and cannot be disabled. However, you can choose not to use it by cancelling all current translation jobs and translating directly within the posts/pages edit screens. For translating content, follow the steps outlined here: Using plus icons to translate content. Additionally, with your Multilingual CMS license, you can utilize the Advanced Translation Editor for automatic translations, accessible here: Advanced Translation Editor. We advise against downgrading your license as it would limit your ability to translate strings from your theme or other plugins and access to automatic translations.
If this solution does not apply to your situation, or if it seems outdated, we recommend opening a new support ticket. We also suggest checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. For further assistance, please visit our support forum: WPML Support Forum.
