Tell us what you are trying to do?

I'm working on Avada theme + WPML. I'd like to keep the settings for the main language (typography, logos) without having to set all these elements again for the other two languages. Is it possible?
I've uploaded a couple of screenshots to clarify my question. WPML-cat shows the main configuration (exemple: the right typography). WPML-ES shows that is not showing the right typography but the default one.
Is there a way to clone the main language settings to the secondary languages? Otherwise I have to set colors, logos, rollover styles and so on.
Thanks,

What is the link to your site? -> hidden link

Thank you for contacting WPML support.

Have you tried to export theme options that you are using in one language and import them to another?

If not, please have a look here:

It seems you encountered a fatal error, and the process is stuck.

You need to enable debug.log. You can do this by adding a few lines to the site’s wp-config.php file. With error log enabled, you will see what the actual problem is.

To enable it, open your wp-config.php file and look for define(‘WP_DEBUG’, false);. Change it to:

define('WP_DEBUG', true);

In order to enable the error logging to a file on the server you need to add yet one more similar line:

define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true );

In this case, the errors will be saved to a debug.log log file inside the /wp-content/directory.

Let me know what you see after the debug mode has been enabled and you try to import again.
