Background of the issue:
After installing WPML and setting English as a second language (original being Dutch), I encountered issues with page assignments and visibility on my website (hidden link).

Symptoms:
1. Many Dutch pages were missing from both the backend and frontend. 2. WPML automatically assigned three of my Dutch pages as English without my input. After deactivating and reactivating WPML, most Dutch pages reappeared, but three pages are still incorrectly listed under English.

Questions:
How can I correct the language assignment of the pages that WPML incorrectly assigned to English?
What steps should I take to ensure all my pages are correctly displayed and managed in WPML?

Hi there, the chat was closed 2 hours ago, but the issue remains. Since this is al production website, I was wondering how much time you expect to take to solve this issue. Otherwise, I'm going to try to fix this manually. Thanks!

Hi there, I'm going to create new pages for the NL version missing pages, because I can't wait for support to fix the issue.

I have "resolved" the issue, which has taken me more time than expected. Now, I understand issues can happen, but pages that are moved to the "new" language automatically, to me this feels like a major bug in WPML, which hopefully will be resolved quickly.
