This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client reported that despite translations being marked as complete, the 'Login / Register' strings in an Elementor custom widget were not reflecting on the front end.
Solution:
We resolved the issue by modifying the WPML settings to register the strings for translation. Here are the steps we followed:
1. Navigate to WPML -> Settings -> Custom XML tab.
2. Add the following code to register the strings for translation:
<wpml-config> <elementor-widgets> <widget name="apus_element_user_info2"> <fields> <field>login_register_text</field> <field>login_text</field> <field>register_text</field> <field>login_title</field> <field>register_title</field> </fields> </widget> </elementor-widgets> </wpml-config>
3. Edit the original header and add an empty space to prompt WPML to recognize that the translation needs an update.
4. Edit the translation of the header where the texts will now be available for translation.
