This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
If you're experiencing an issue where a newly added language, such as Dutch, is not appearing in the Translation Management menu of the WPML plugin, it might be due to certain settings or configurations.
Solution:
First, ensure that the language has been correctly added in the WPML Languages menu. If it appears to be added but still doesn't show up in Translation Management, check if you have Object cache enabled. We recommend disabling Object cache temporarily while working with WPML, as it can sometimes prevent changes from being saved properly. After making these adjustments, the new language should display correctly in the Translation Management menu.

If this solution does not resolve your issue or seems irrelevant due to being outdated or not applicable to your case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent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. If problems persist, please open a new support ticket.

Hello,

you have been inactive for a while, so I have created ticket.

I have seen there was no Dutch added, so I have added it again and it shows fine now. I also see you have Object cache enabled, I advise to disable it while you work with WPML as it can cause sometimes weird issues. You can enable it back once you have done with translation etc.

Regards,
Drazen
