Problem: The client was experiencing issues with automatic translation credits and needed assistance in setting up American English as a new language on their site.
Solution: 1. If the client recently changed the domain, domain provider, or server, they need to re-register WPML: - Go to https://wpml.org/account/websites/ - Delete the site URL if it's already registered. - Re-enter the site URL to create a new site key. - Copy the key and register WPML again under Plugins > Install > Commercial.
2. To set up American English as a new language: - Go to Languages > Site languages > Edit languages. - Edit the default English language to change the "default locale" to en_GB. - Add a new language and create a custom language for US English, using en_US as the "default locale".
3. If encountering issues with JS scripts and CSS sheets being blocked, consider disabling the rules or the plugin "CSS JS Manager, Async JavaScript, Defer Render Blocking CSS".
4. Regarding translation credits, once the client reaches a certain usage, they will be prompted to pay the open amount as an internal fraud security measure.

Enabling the option "Look for strings while pages are rendered". 3. Navigating to the page where the untranslated strings are displayed. 4. Returning to WPML → String Translation to check if the string has been registered. 5. Translating the string if it has been found.
