Hello, we use 2 languages on our website: English and Croatian.

We have used a new elementor feature that allows us to create a mega menu through Elementor itself.

However, we are interested in how we can translate items in the mega menu?

Since our site is eccomerce, the content of our mega menu are links to product categories.

It is necessary to translate the items in the mega menu and change the links pointing to the corresponding links in the corresponding language.

Hi,

Thanks for contacting WPML forums support. I'll be glad to help you today.

Please go to Appearance-> Menus, check if the menus are translated, and if not, please translate them.

After translating the menus, please edit the translated menu to edit the mega menu template.

Best regards,
Osama

"Please go to Appearance-> Menus, check if the menus are translated, and if not, please translate them."

That's done.

"After translating the menus, please edit the translated menu to edit the mega menu template."

How do you think we should edit the translated menu? We do not use the Elements Kit plugin for the Mega menu to be able to edit in the Appearance-> Menus section. As we mentioned earlier, we use the new Elementor Pro feature that allows us to create mega menus.

Please explain in more detail. Thank you.

Hi,

This new Elementor feature is set in the menu widget in the header template. If that is the case, please make sure that the header template is translated.

After translating the template, you might need to edit the translated template to translate the menu.

If that didn't help, I would need to look closely at your site, so I would need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP)
– preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible –
in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.

Your next answer will be private, which means only you and I can access it.

❌ Please backup your database and website ❌

✙ I would need your permission to de-activate and re-activate the Plugins and the Theme and change configurations on the site. This is also a reason the backup is critical.

✙ I also need your permission to take a local copy of your site to debug the issue without affecting your live site.

Best regards,
