This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
You are developing a site and have set German as the default language. However, you encounter an error stating: 'Your default language German must be assigned to a supported language in order to use automatic translation.' You are unsure what is wrong with your settings.
Solution:
If you're using WPML AI for automatic translation, it's important to note that this feature currently supports translations from English to German, Spanish, French, Portuguese, and Italian. Therefore, you need to set English as the default language for your site to utilize the automatic translation feature effectively.
