Background of the issue:
I made two subdomains for my website in Romanian and Danish using WPML. The plugin translated both versions, but the website is built with Elementor. On the main website, the content is full page, but on the translated subdomains, the content appears boxed. The issue can be seen at hidden link and hidden link.

Symptoms:
The translated versions of the website display content in a boxed layout instead of full page, unlike the main website.

Questions:
How can I fix the boxed layout issue on the translated subdomains?

Thank you for your message.

The content of the page was translated via WPML -> Translation Management or using the Translation Editor. That is the reason why you don't see the content when editing the pages on the secondary languages using the Live Composer, and it is the expected behavior.

If you want to be able to edit the content manually using the Live Composer on the secondary languages, then you will need to deactivate the Translation Editor as described in this guide: https://wpml.org/documentation/translating-your-contents/using-different-translation-editors-for-different-pages/ and translate the page again.

Hi there,

Here is a video I created describing the steps to follow to disable the Translation Editor and the pros and cons of doing it: hidden link

How I see and how my designer told me, from your video, that we need to make all the work manually, If it's like that, why I will need an WPML licence If still I have to do all the work manually? I wanted an automation and faster way of translation and just an edit page by page to fix some bad translations. But not making all manually...What we can do in this situation? That mean it's not compatible with Live Composer? Thank you!

Hi there,

Live Composer is not listed as compatible with WPML, which means that our compatibility team hasn't validated it yet. If Live Composer authors claim that it is compatible with WPML, then they should provide you with the steps to configure it correctly so it can be translated via WPML automatically.
