Background of the issue:
My first WordPress version is in French. I have several Elementor Pro templates I've made. I use the Elementor date widget with a personalized format as: j F Y using a text before 'textFR ,'. So it gives me the results, for example: TextFR, 23 octobre 2024. I would like to translate that to have the English result: TextEN, F j, Y.

Symptoms:
I don't see how to translate TextFR to TextEN and change the format from j F Y to F j, Y without creating a new template.

Questions:
How to translate TextFR to TextEN in the Elementor Pro date widget?
How to change the date format from j F Y to F j, Y without creating a new template?

Hello,

Thank you for contacting WPML support team,

These fields do not seem to be detected by WPML, which means that they are not properly registered under our language configuration file.

Basically, we need to scan the field names that are not detected/translated and add them to WPML settings > Language configuration file.

We do have a documentation on how to do this : https://wpml.org/documentation/support/multilingual-tools/registering-custom-elementor-widgets-for-translation/

Let me know if you need help creating the XML file,

Best,
