Problem: You are installing WPML on your website and assigning credits, but you do not see the automatic translation option in the translation management dashboard. Solution: If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend you try the following steps: 1. Navigate to WPML > Settings > Translation Editor and enable the Advanced Translation Editor. 2. Note that the Classic Translation Editor does not support creating automatic translations. 3. Once the Advanced Translation Editor is enabled, the Tools tab should appear at WPML > Translation Management.

Problem: The client needed to change the default language settings in WPML from English to French after mistakenly setting it up incorrectly. They also faced issues with WPML not allowing changes after attempting to uninstall and reinstall the plugin. Solution: If you have not yet done any translations, we recommend fully uninstalling WPML by following the steps in this guide: Deleting languages and plugin data by doing a WPML reset. If you have already translated content, you should either: 1. Delete the translated content and then follow the steps in the guide mentioned above. 2. Change the default language of the site by following the instructions in this forum post: Changing the default language and language directories.
