The body of the divi blurb module is not showing in translation page

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

Problem:

How do I make the content between the opening and end tag of a shortcode translatable in the translation page? E.g. in the following shortcode:

[et_pb_blurb title="Gruppenangebote" content_max_width="100%" admin_label="Text Gruppenangebote" _builder_version="4.21.0" _module_preset="default" header_level="h2" header_font_size="30px" body_font_size="20px" body_line_height="1.8em" background_color="#FFFFFF" background_enable_image="off" custom_padding="63px|80px|0px|80px|false|false" custom_padding_tablet="63px|80px|0px|80px|false|false" custom_padding_phone="63px|17px|0px|17px|false|false" custom_padding_last_edited="on|phone" link_option_url="https://azibene.ch/bei-uns/" header_font_size_tablet="40px" header_font_size_phone="26px" header_font_size_last_edited="on|phone" body_font_size_tablet="20px" body_font_size_phone="18px" body_font_size_last_edited="on|phone" global_module="12675" saved_tabs="all" global_colors_info="{}"]<p><span>Entdecken Sie die komplette Auswahl an Gruppenangeboten "</span></p>
[/et_pb_blurb]

Solution:

1. Go to WPML -> Settings -> Custom XML Configuration.

2. Add this code:

<wpml-config>
  <shortcodes>
    <shortcode>
      <tag>et_pb_blurb</tag>
    </shortcode>
  </shortcodes>
</wpml-config>

3. Click the Save button.

4. Change something on the page with this shortcode and press the Update button. This will also trigger a change to the translation. (The pencil icon will change to a circled arrow icon).

5. Edit the page with the Advanced Translation Editor and see if you can translate the content of this shortcode.

Itamar Supporter Languages: English (English ) Hebrew (עברית ) Timezone: Asia/Jerusalem (GMT+02:00)	Hi, Jan. You should follow our guides on adding WPML configuration files. https://wpml.org/documentation/support/language-configuration-files/ Specifically, please also check our guide on Maintaining the Divi Builder Compatibility with WPML. https://wpml.org/documentation/support/maintaining-divi-builder-compatibility-wpml/ You can try the following. 1. Go to WPML -> Settings -> Custom XML Configuration. 2. Add this code: <wpml-config> <shortcodes> <shortcode> <tag>et_pb_blurb</tag> </shortcode> </shortcodes> </wpml-config> 3. Click the Save button. 4. Change something on the page with this shortcode and press the Update button. This will also trigger a change to the translation. (The pencil icon will change to a circled arrow icon). 5. Edit the page with the Advanced Translation Editor and see if you can translate the content of this shortcode. I tried it on my test site, and it worked. Regards, Itamar.

janH-80	Thank you Itamar I was confused because the title of the module did show automatically in the translation page. Therefore I did not even try to add the XML. Thank you for your help! Kind regards, Jan
