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

Problem:
If you're experiencing issues where changes made in Elementor are not appearing in the WPML advanced translator, it might be because the updated content needs to be re-sent for translation.
Solution:
To resolve this, we recommend the following steps:
1. Update the content in the default language.
2. Go to WPML > Translation Management.
3. Find the page or post in the default language and check the box next to it.
4. At the bottom of the page, select "Translate" for the language you want to re-send it for translation. For other languages, select "do nothing".
For more detailed instructions, please refer to our documentation on translating pages, posts, and custom post types.

If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have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. If issues persist, please open a new support ticket.

Hello,

i created a page with elementor, i launch translator on the job (french to english by the WPML advanced translator)... afterwards we change a sentence on the page (by using elementor, no any other way to do that), but we try to figure out why the change is not in the advanced translator...

I search on the web and on the forum, but we didnt find any words about that.

Thank a lot

Hi there.

Can you please try to re-send that page for translation, after you update the default language content, and see if the content shows up after that?

Please let me know.

Hello, thank for coming back!

To be sure, to re-send the page for translation, i have to:

1) go the default language (here FR)
2) on the language widget : put Language priority to "required"

3) update the page

You confirm ?

Hi there.

In order to re-send the page for translation, you can go to WPML > Translation Management > find the page/post (make sure it is the one in the default language) > check the box > and at the bottom select "Translate" for the language in which you want to re-send it for translation (for the other ones check them as "do nothing").

Practically, follow the steps from the documentation below:
https://wpml.org/documentation/translating-your-contents/#translating-pages-posts-and-custom-post-types

Please let me know how that goes.
