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

Problem:
The client was unable to edit the term 'salt' as it was always displayed with gears and after removing it from the strings, they could not add it back.
Solution:
1. Navigate to WPML > String Translation.
2. At the bottom of the page, locate and check the checkbox titled "Look for strings while pages are rendered".
3. Visit the front end of the site and refresh the page where the 'salt' string should appear 1-2 times.
4. Return to WPML > String Translation and search for the 'salt' string. Refresh the page a couple of times before searching to ensure it appears.

If the string 'salt' still does not appear or if this solution is not applicable due to being outdated or not matching your case, we recommend opening a new support ticket. Additionally, we highly recommend checking related known issues, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If further assistance is needed, please contact us on the WPML support forum.

Hi there, Tobias.

Go to WPML > String Translation and at the bottom of the page you will find a checkbox called "Look for strings while pages are rendered". You can enable (check) that and then go in the front end to a page where you have that string showing up (and refresh the page 1-2 times) and then go back to WPML > String Translation and search for that string and see if it now shows up (refresh the page a couple times before searching).

It should show back in WPML > String Translation now.
