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

Problem:
The client is unable to change the link for the 'schedule an appointment' button at the top of their site, which is built with Elementor and managed with WPML. The button currently links to a Dutch page, but it should link to the corresponding English page.
Solution:
We found that the button is added through the 'Appearance >> Customize > Header builder' section. To update the link, we used the WPML String Translation tool. Here's how you can do it:
1. Go to WPML >> String Translation.
2. Search for the button URL.
3. Add the translation for the URL.
This should update the button link to direct to the correct language version of the page. Please check to confirm that the changes are correct.

If this solution does not resolve your issue, or if it seems outdated or irrelevant to your case, we recommend opening a new support ticket. Additionally, we highly 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.

How can I change the link for the 'schedule an appointment' button right of the topmenu in Elementor using WPML? Because its now going to the dutch site ..

I’ve noticed that the button is added from Appearance >> Customize > Header builder section. So, I went to WPML >> String Translation page, searched for the button URL and added the translation and it seems to be working correctly.

You can update the button URL from here:
hidden link

Could you please check and confirm?

Thank you for your cooperation.
