How to translate the "choose by" secton of my menu

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

Problem:
I need assistance with translating certain parts of my website's menu, specifically a section titled "Choose by".

Solution:
Translate the menus by following our guide on translating menus.
Next, manually edit the menu since it has a MEGA MENU feature coming from the theme and configure the mega-menu settings on the translated menus.

danielaH-13	Hi Alejandro, Thank you for your help. There are some parts of the website that are still not translated, when you go to "Choose by" (this also has to be translated better but I don't know how) everythnig is in Bulgarian. How can I acces to these non translated parts and translate them, please ? Regards

I could not understand how that menu element was created and i also noticed you haven't translated the menus either so let's start by doing that first. Please follow this guide to know how to do so: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-menus/ then let me know how did you create that "mega menu" ("choose by" menu element) so i can understand how it can be translated. Regards.

danielaH-13	Hi, I follow the steps on the video to translate this mega menu; it was translated but it was a mess. Let me explain you what I did and you'll tell me where I'm mistaken. I go to Appearance - Menus Then on the left I choose - Shop - Mega Menu and Product Categories - I selected all. - Save menu . I'm showing you the result as screenshot, in EN and BG. Please help me with this issue. Regards, Daniela

danielaH-13	Hi Alejandro, Yes, I translated a few days before 🙂 thank you very much. How can I change the word "Choose by" to "Shop" ? I'm afraid to put a mess ...

Alejandro WPML Supporter since 02/2018 Languages: English (English ) Spanish (Español ) Italian (Italiano ) Timezone: Europe/Rome (GMT+02:00)	From what i see "choose by" seems to be the name of the page, isn't that right? if that's the case, all you need to do is change the title of the page and then update the translation. If that's not how you selected the name "choose by", then let me know how so i can understand how you can change it.

danielaH-13	"Choose by" was translated by my hosting service. I want also to modify the "Categories", they are not translated correctly. hidden link Then I have to modify / translate correctly the filters for Choose a brand, TYPE, GENDER ( Why is it in bulgarian?), FRAGRANCE TYPE. I upload the image of what I mean by "Categories"

Alejandro WPML Supporter since 02/2018 Languages: English (English ) Spanish (Español ) Italian (Italiano ) Timezone: Europe/Rome (GMT+02:00)	1) To translate categories: https://wpml.org/documentation/related-projects/woocommerce-multilingual/#taxonomies (in the side menu you'll find the option: Translating Product Categories, Tags, Attributes and Taxonomies you can click it and follow the instructions there) 2) i can't see "choose by" anymore so i guess you translated it already? it seems it was just the name of the page, you can also change the slug (the URL) by editing the translated page, just as you do with a normal page 🙂 3) About the filter, where do you add them, it seems they are widgets so in that case this guide will probably solve your problem: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-widgets/ Try thm out and let me know how it goes.
