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

Problem:
You are trying to translate your site into German using WPML, but the translations are not displaying on the front end or in the WPML control panel.
Solution:
First, ensure that the translated page is functioning correctly. If it is, follow these steps:
1. Navigate to WPML-> String Translation.
2. Scroll down and click on the Translate texts in admin screens » link.
3. Search for

[theme_mods_rishi][footer_builder_key_placement][sections][0]id

.
4. Select the string.
5. Click on the Remove from String Translation button.
6. Check the translated pages again.
Additionally, you can translate footer strings directly via WPML-> String Translation or by creating a widget for each language, which has been set up on your site. Please verify if the footer translates correctly.

If this solution does not resolve your issue or seems outdated, we recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the problem persists, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.

Hello Osama,

I have checked the page, it works correctly apart from the image is not showing.

So, I located the string translation on the live site that needed removing. Only it wont be removed.
As it says registered and locked beside it.

What do I do now?

Many thanks for all your help,
Kate

Hello Osama,

Thank you so much! Yes everything is now working correctly!

i am just checking, but does this mean the footer section is best left untranslated?
And I don't need to translate any other strings?

Many thanks,
Kate

Hi Kate,

You can translate the footer strings by translating them via WPML-> String Translation. (hidden link)

Or creating a widget per language, which I did on your site. (hidden link)

Please check if the footer is translated correctly. (hidden link)
