Notice When WPML Shows Content in Another Language
Adds a short notice above posts that WPML displays in the default language because no translation exists yet ("display as translated" mode), so visitors know why the text is not in their language.

Code
$wpide_notice = 'This content is not available in your language yet, so we are showing the original version.';
add_action( 'admin_init', function () use ( $wpide_notice ) {

} );
add_filter( 'the_content', function ( $content ) use ( $wpide_notice ) {
if ( ! defined( 'ICL_SITEPRESS_VERSION' ) || is_admin() || ! is_singular() || ! in_the_loop() || ! is_main_query() ) {
return $content;
}
$details = apply_filters( 'wpml_post_language_details', null, get_the_ID() );
$current = apply_filters( 'wpml_current_language', null );
if ( ! is_array( $details ) || empty( $details['language_code'] ) || $details['language_code'] === $current ) {
return $content;
}
$text = apply_filters( 'wpml_translate_single_string', $wpide_notice, 'WPIDE Snippets', 'Fallback language notice' );
return '<p class="wpide-fallback-notice" role="note" style="padding:.75em 1em;border-inline-start:4px solid #dba617;background:rgba(219,166,23,.1)">' . esc_html( $text ) . '</p>'
