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

Problem:
You are translating from English to Arabic using WPML with the XStore theme and Elementor. Despite using the auto string register tool, some strings are not translating to Arabic.
Solution:
1. Go to your WordPress Dashboard > WPML > String Translation.
2. Scroll down and click on the Translate texts in admin screens » link.
3. On the new page, search for the string "Cart".
4. Find the entry, select it, and click the Include in string translation button below the table. This action adds the string to the string translation list.
5. Return to the string translation page. You should now see a new Cart entry that is not translated. Translate it accordingly.

For more detailed steps, you can visit our documentation on finding strings that don't appear on the string translation page.

Background of the issue:
I am translating from English to Arabic using WPML. I am using the XStore theme with Elementor. I have tried translating strings and used the auto string register tool to capture any missing strings.

Symptoms:
Some of the strings are not translating to Arabic.

Questions:
Why are some strings not translating to Arabic despite using the auto string register tool?

Hi,

It seems the chat is disconnected. I went to the string translation and clicked the "Translate texts in admin screens »" link at the very bottom of the page and searched for Cart and found it and added it to the string translation and now it works for the mobile devices.

You can learn more on how I did that here:

Thanks.

Sure!

- Go to WordPress Dashboard > WPML > String Translation
- Scroll down and click the "Translate texts in admin screens »" link.
- You will see a new page.
- Search for "Cart" there.
- You will an entry and you should select it and click the Include in string translation button below the table. (You do not need to do that now as I already did and the CART string is on the string translation)
- Go back to string translation page and this time you will see a new Cart entry that is not translated. Translate it and it should be ok. (I already translated it so you do not need to do anything new)

Thanks.
