edmondoP	Background of the issue: I am using automated translation in WPML to create product translations. I created products in the original language and kept them in draft. Once I published them, I noticed an issue. Here is the link to the page where the issue can be seen: hidden link. Symptoms: The product titles are keeping the label "(copy)" in the title after being duplicated from an original product. Questions: Why do the translated product titles retain the "(copy)" label? How can I ensure the final title is translated correctly without the "(copy)" label?
