This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
If you're trying to enable automatic translations but want to exclude certain posts in specific categories, you might be facing some difficulties.
Solution:
We recommend using the "Translate what you choose" mode, which allows you to manually create translation jobs from WPML > Translation Management > Dashboard. This mode gives you the flexibility to send content for automatic translation or assign it to local translators as needed.
However, if you prefer to use the "Translate everything automatically" mode and still want to exclude specific posts from automatic translation, you'll need to edit each original post in the WordPress Editor. In the right sidebar, change the translation method from "WPML Translation Editor" to "WordPress Editor". This action will exclude those posts from automatic translation.
For further guidance on creating translations after excluding posts, please refer to our documentation:
Using different translation editors for different pages.
