[Resolved] Some Parts of my Elementor pages are not translated
This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: You are working on a site under development and trying to translate sections of your Elementor pages using WPML. Some parts of your Elementor pages are not translating, and you are unable to get the XML file for translation. Solution: We recommend the following steps to resolve the issue: 1. Add the following XML in WPML >> Settings > Custom XML Configuration section:
2. Make a small change in the default language page title to reload the translation and press the Update button. 3. Remove the change made in step 2 and press the Update button again. 4. Click on the secondary language icon to open up the page in Advanced Translation Editor and add the translation. If the issue persists, you might need to implement a workaround for a known issue with Elementor tabs not displaying translated templates correctly. Follow the steps outlined in this errata: https://wpml.org/errata/exclusive-addons-elementor-tabs-widget-does-not-display-the-elementor-template-translation/ If these solutions do not resolve your issue or if they seem outdated or irrelevant to your case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix,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.

Symptoms:
Some parts of my Elementor pages are not translated.
Questions:
Why is a section of my Elementor page not translating?
How can I successfully get the XML file for translation?
2. Made a small change in the default language page title to reload the translation and pressed an Update button.
3. Removed that change that was made on step #2 and pressed an Update button.
4. Clicked on the secondary language icon to open up the page in Advanced Translation Editor and I’m able to add the translation as you can see in the attached screenshots.
Please let me know if this resolves the issue or if you need further assistance with this issue
Apologies for the inconvenience. The sandbox site expired after 7 days of inactivity. Here is the new auto-login URL to access the WP site and replicate the issue: hidden link
here is the Link with the Page, where i put in the Widgets, i couldnt translate.
The Switcher has 2 Elementor Templates, which i also implemented in the backend, from my website. Hopefully u can resolve it now.
2. You may ask the Element Pack Pro plugin author about this issue: hidden link they may already have a fix for it so that it will work fine with WPML.
1. I need to edit the Page with Elementor, obviously this wont work. 2. I asked, but how should that be a solution. 3. Other Plugins have similar issues, like with exklusive Addons, it wont translate, I even changed the Template, which had only basic Elementor widgets.
I have tried to change the php file of exklusive Addons, just like on one of your Support sites, now i have an Error.
This must be fixxed!
How does it take you this long to give me a proper solution for the problem?
Thanks for your message. I understand your frustration, and I truly appreciate your patience.
- Please note that making any external plugin fully compatible with WPML requires collaboration between the plugin author and WPML’s compatibility team. We can only progress so far without their involvement.
- If that's the case, could you please replicate the issue on our sandbox site: hidden link
This will help us escalate it to the compatibility team and investigate further.
Thank you for your cooperation and understanding. We’re here to resolve this as quickly as possible.
Sorry for the delay, I was off during the weekend (Friday-Saturday). Thanks for replicating it using Exclusive Addons for Elementor plugin. I’m debugging this issue on Sanbox site and will get back with an update soon.
