[Resolved] I need a efficient way to change URL's and text on multiple sites

Hello,

I created a minimal installation of WordPress, WPML, and all necessary WPML add-ons.

You can access the WordPress dashboard using the link below:
- hidden link

Kindly follow the steps below:
- Set up WPML and Elementor
- Install only the necessary plugins.
- Create a new page with this button
- No need to create a whole website and meaningful pages.
- Share with me step by step guide on how can I check the issue

Let me know when done and how can I check it out.

Regards.

Hello,

thanks for getting back.

I have checked and could see the issue, and tried to add some custom XML to add a URL for translation, but seems it is not working.

I have shared this now with the 2nd tier to check and advise further, please note since this plugin is not officially on our compatible plugins list, in the end, we might need plugin author help on this.

I will update you soon.

Hello,

it is possible, but there is a chance that manually added content will be overwritten when you use another method. Since it is not recommended to mix translation methods. In this case, the manual method versus the WPML editor.

I will update you further when there is an update from 2nd tier.

Hello,

changes done manually will be overwritten when you use another method for that same job, so that specific page and language pair, for example, EN->FR.

If you mix methods for other languages and pages then the same thing can happen for them also.

Let me know if that is clear now.

Hello,

if you are going to translate manually, as I have you said you need to disable the WPML editor for that page in general, otherwise it will revert changes. If you need further help on this topic you/I can open a new ticket for this and we can continue there. Since we limit 1 issue per ticket to keep things clear.

As per your URLs issue, our 2nd tier got back with the correct XML:

- Go to WPML > Settings > Custom XML
- Add next code:

<wpml-config>
  <elementor-widgets>
    <widget name="qi_addons_for_elementor_info_button">
      <fields>
        <field>custom_class</field>
        <field>info_button_text</field>
        <field>info_button_subtext</field>
        <field>info_button_link>url</field>
      </fields>
    </widget>
  </elementor-widgets>
</wpml-config>

- Make a small change to default language title and save
- Translate and URLs will be there it if you are using ATE, you need to search them.
