"WPML detected a new address for this site" warning is showing after site is migrated to new serve...

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:

After migrating your site to Amazon Lightsail from Bluehost without changing the domain, WPML is showing a warning about a new site address.

Solution:

First, ensure you have a full site backup. Then, in the WPML warning message, select the option 'No / I changed the address of the site to this new one' and click on the 'Continue' button. Verify if the translated posts are displaying as expected.

If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we recommend opening a new support ticket. Also, check the related known issues and confirm that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. For further assistance, please visit our support forum.

kumuduS	Background of the issue: I recently migrated our site to Amazon Lightsail from Bluehost without changing our domain. We assigned the Lightsail instance to a static IP, which is pointed to the domain in GoDaddy. We manage all DNS records on the GoDaddy side and have redirected the IP address link to the site URL through the redirection plugin. Symptoms: WPML detected a new address for this site warning is showing after the site is migrated to a new server without any domain change. Questions: How can we fix the WPML warning about a new site address after migration? The options in the message are not applicable to our case since this is our live site, but not a copy of the running live site.
