This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
You are developing a site using WPML and have set up two English languages: British English (EN_GB) as the default and North American English (EN_US) as a custom language. You previously had automatic translation working for EN_US, but it has stopped functioning. The 'Edit language' screen indicates that content in this language cannot be automatically translated unless mapped to a language different from the default.
Solution:
Currently, WPML does not support automatic translation for EN_GB and EN_US. Therefore, you cannot map the same language if it is already set as the site's default language. We recommend not using the same mapping for different languages. Instead, you can create duplicates for EN_US content so that EN_GB content will be displayed on EN_US pages. For more details on duplicating content, please visit this documentation.
If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have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 further assistance is needed, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.
