I moved the development website hidden link to hidden link, but the account and credits still point to the old development website and I cannot assign credits to the new production website. How can I register a new key on the production website?

Hi there.

You should be able to generate a new production key from here:
https://wpml.org/account/sites

Then, copy the key, go to your site's backend > Plugins > Add new > Commercial > Un-register WPML from the old key, and RE-register WPML with the new key.

In regards to the credits, they are still on the old site from what I understand from you.

If that's the case, you should be able to move them by following the steps explained here:
https://wpml.org/documentation/automatic-translation/how-to-assign-automatic-translation-credits-to-your-sites/

I hope that you will find this information helpful.

Please let me know how things go.

Kind regards,
Mihai Apetrei
