Problem:
The client was unable to start automatic translation on their site using WPML because of an error message stating that the default language, German, must be assigned to a supported language.
Solution:
The client resolved the issue by going to the settings and activating the new editor, including old translations. After saving these changes, the error message disappeared, and the client was able to proceed with automatic translations.
