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

Problem:
The client needed assistance with two issues: changing the secondary title of the website that appears in the browser tab to English, and translating a widget title that was not being translated.
Solution:
For the first issue regarding the secondary title of the website in the browser tab, we directed the client to existing resources and recommended using SEO plugins compatible with WPML, such as Yoast SEO, along with our add-ons for multilingual SEO:

For the second issue about the untranslated widget title, we created a separate support ticket to address it, which can be found here:
One widget title not translated

If the provided solution does not apply to your case, or if it is outdated, we recommend opening a new support ticket. We also highly suggest checking the 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 do not hesitate to contact us in the WPML support forum.

Hello,
All the translations of my client's website are very well. I have a problem with String Translations. B ecause my client's website is already translated in Greek some strings with English Language are in Greek (widgets, taxonomies and some others). How I can change these to English? And second how can I change the secondary title of website in English which appears in the TAB of Browser?

Thanks in advance!

Hi there, Michael.

Thank you for your patience - there's been a pretty full queue so it can take a bit longer than usual to respond.

Per our Support Policy, we can handle only one issue per ticket.

Continuing with one issue per ticket helps not only supporters to focus on one issue at once, but also enables other users to find solutions to their questions faster.

So let's tackle point number 1 in this ticket. I created a new ticket for you for the second issue that you mentioned and you can find it here:
https://wpml.org/forums/topic/split-one-widget-title-not-translated/

I created this custom search URL for you so that you can quickly find the existing tickets on this topic where my colleagues already shared recommendations for this so that we can speed things up:

Also, there are specific SEO plugins that you can use with WordPress (Yoast for example), so in case you will be using one of those, we also have an add-on that is part of your subscription:

- https://wpml.org/documentation/plugins-compatibility/using-wordpress-seo-with-wpml/

- https://wpml.org/documentation/how-to-set-up-multilingual-seo-on-your-website/

I hope that you will find this information helpful. 🙂
