Not sure how to translate those theme blocks.

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

Problem:
You are unable to find the bottom blocks of your theme in the WPML string translation interface, and you are finding the new version of WPML confusing.

Solution:
First, ensure you have checked the Admin Strings section as some strings might appear there. Additionally, follow the steps in our guide on Finding Strings that Don't Appear on the String Translation Page to bring those strings into String Translation. If the blocks are part of a widget or an element from a theme or page builder, you might need to make them recognizable by WPML. For detailed instructions, please visit How to Register Page Builder Widgets for Translation.

If this solution does not apply to your case because it might be outdated, or if you are still experiencing issues, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the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 needed, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum for further assistance.

omarA-71	Background of the issue: I am trying to translate the bottom blocks of my theme on my site hidden link. I am looking them up in the translation string but cannot find them. I am using the Getting Started guide for reference. Symptoms: I cannot find the bottom blocks of my theme in the translation string. The new version of WPML is still confusing like the old ones. Questions: How do I translate the bottom blocks of my theme? Why can't I find the bottom blocks in the translation string? Is there a specific guide for translating theme blocks in WPML?

Waqas Bin Hasan Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Karachi (GMT+05:00)	Thank you for the details, I can see the problem and it only appears when visiting the site's mobile version. Have you tried looking into Admin Strings? As well as, have you tried other methods mentioned in this guide? https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/finding-strings-that-dont-appear-on-the-string-translation-page/. Please take a look and try all of these and see if you can bring those strings into String Translation, search and translate. Other than that, if that's a widget or element coming from theme or page builder, you may also make it recognizable by WPML. Please see https://wpml.org/documentation/support/language-configuration-files/how-to-register-page-builder-widgets-for-translation/ for details.
