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

Problem:
The client is using WPML Multilingual CMS and Breadcrumb NavXT on their website. They reported that the 'Project Sectors' breadcrumb menu does not translate on project detail pages, and WPML String Translation does not detect the missing string.
Solution:
1. We identified that the site has a custom option to select a page as a portfolio root, which required the translation of the page ID.
2. To resolve this, we translated the page ID in WPML > String Translation by finding both the original and Arabic page IDs. Then, we added the ID of the Arabic page as a translation of the original ID.
3. To find the page ID, follow this guide: https://wpdatatables.com/how-to-find-page-id-in-wordpress/
4. Use the text search in WPML > String Translation to search for the ID. For more details on finding IDs that don't appear on the String Translation page, visit: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/finding-strings-that-dont-appear-on-the-string-translation-page/#translate-admin-and-settings-strings
5. Additionally, in WPML > String Translation, click 'Translate texts in admin screen' at the bottom of the page and search for option strings like 'root' or 'page' to find such IDs.

Hi Andreas,

Thank you for your response.

I have no issue in knowing the id of the page. My question is how was Lucas able to add the id of the page under WPML > String Translation because that page id was not there before, plus I am not able to see any other page id in the list.

I checked the links which you have shared but I couldn't find an answer, maybe I am missing something.

I just need the instructions on how to add the id of a page to the list under String Translation since I wasn't able to find it.

Thanks

It appears that the site has a custom option on his site to select a page as a portfolio root.

If you go to WPML > String Translation and click at the bottom of the page the link "Translate texts in admin screen" you can search for option strings.

If you search for theme options like "root", "page" you should be able to find such IDs.

I was able to find the option called [bcn_options]apost_portfolio_root in the "Admin Texts Translation"

Then I selected the checkbox and click on "Add to String Translation" button.

Then the option appeared in the "String Translation".

Thanks Adreas for the guidance, the issue has been resolved now 🙂
