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

Problem:
The client is experiencing issues with translations not displaying correctly on the frontend of their website. Specifically, translations are not appearing in the intended language but are showing in the original language (German) instead. This issue arises when using patterns with H1 tags, which might not be fully supported for translation in the current setup.
Solution:
1. Verify that the pattern and the page are translated separately. This approach usually resolves similar issues.
2. If the problem persists, a manual translation of the text within the patterns may be necessary until a permanent fix is developed. This involves adjusting the text directly in the default language and then re-translating it.
3. After making changes to the default language page, save the changes and then re-translate the page to ensure that the translations are applied correctly.

Please note that this solution might be outdated or not applicable to your specific case. If the issue persists, 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 necessary, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum for further assistance.

Hello,

it seems this Overriding feature was introduced in WP 6.6 and it is not compatible yet. It is also not related to Stackable but to any native WP pattern.

The issue is escalated to our devs and we will be working on this. I will update you when I more new, but it will take some time.

Regards,
Drazen

Hello,

I am afraid as I have said this is not yet supported, and it will take some time before our developers include this.

In the meantime best you can do is manually edit and adjust 2nd language content, until we implement it, but it will not be so soon.

You can follow status in errata link: https://wpml.org/errata/wordpress-6-6-overrides-in-synced-patterns-are-not-translatable/

Hey, do you have an information for us about the timing of the fix/ implementation?

Alternatively, we would translate all patterns into each language and then use them in the relevant places. Can this lead to conflicts later after the error has been fixed or is this a good solution?

Hello,

I am afraid not, nor can we share any ETA, this is still a feature that needs development, so it is going to take a while.

You can manually adjust / translate those text and use manual method, just note that later you might need to re-add all of this via WPML editor when you switch back.
