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

Problem:
The client needed help translating checkbox options in Kadence Form (adv) using WPML.
Solution:
We recommended the following steps:
1. Ensure that the WPML String Translation plugin is activated.
2. Add the following XML configuration in the WPML >> Settings > Custom XML Configuration section:

<wpml-config><gutenberg-blocks><gutenberg-block type="kadence/advanced-form-checkbox" translate="1"><key name="label"></key><key name="placeholder"></key><key name="ariaDescription"></key><key name="defaultValue"></key><key name="errorMessage"></key><key name="requiredMessage"></key><key name="helpText"></key><key name="options"></key><key name="*"><key name="label"></key></key></gutenberg-block></gutenberg-blocks></wpml-config>

3. Make a small change in the default language page to reload the translation.
4. Edit the secondary language page in Advanced Translation Editor to translate the radio and checkbox labels.

Thanks for replicating the issue at the fresh WP site. I followed the below steps:

1. Logged in to the fresh WP site.
2. Activated the WPML String Translation plugin.
3. Added the below XML:

<wpml-config>
  <gutenberg-blocks>
    <gutenberg-block type="kadence/advanced-form-radio" translate="1">
      <key name="label" />
      <key name="placeholder" />
      <key name="ariaDescription" />
      <key name="defaultValue" />
      <key name="errorMessage" />
      <key name="requiredMessage" />
      <key name="helpText" />
      <key name="options">
        <key name="*">
          <key name="label" />
        </key>
      </key>
    </gutenberg-block>
    <gutenberg-block type="kadence/advanced-form-checkbox" translate="1">
      <key name="label" />
      <key name="placeholder" />
      <key name="ariaDescription" />
      <key name="defaultValue" />
      <key name="errorMessage" />
      <key name="requiredMessage" />
      <key name="helpText" />
      <key name="options">
        <key name="*">
          <key name="label" />
        </key>
      </key>
    </gutenberg-block>
  </gutenberg-blocks>
</wpml-config>

In WPML >> Settings > Custom XML Configuration section.

4. Made a small change in the default language page to reload the translation: hidden link

5. Edited the secondary language page in Advanced Translation Editor and now radio and checkbox labels are available for translation as you can see in the attached screenshot.

I’d suggest you to please first try to update all the outdated plugins to the latest version on your site after taking full site backup and then try the above steps if the issue still persists.

Kindly let me know the results,
Thank you for your cooperation
