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

Problem:
The client tried to change the header and footer logo to display different logos according to the selected language using Media Translation and String Translation. They navigated to "Translate texts in admin screens" and added logo-related strings for translation. However, the logo only changed on mobile view and remained the same on desktop view.
Solution:
1. Go to WPML -> String Translation.
2. Click on the "Translate texts in admin screens »" link.
3. Search for the site logo ID or URL.
4. Select the strings you wish to translate.
5. Click on the "Add to String Translation" button.
6. Return to String Translation by clicking the "« Return to String Translation" link.
7. Translate the selected strings.

Version: Astra 4.6.3 CORE & 4.6.1 PRO / WPML Multilingual CMS 4.6.9 & WPML String Translation 3.2.9 & WPML Media 2.7.3

Tried to change header & footer logo so it would show different logos according to selected language. Tried to change it via Media Translation and String Translation. Surfed "Translate texts in admin screens »" and added logo-related strings to translation.

For some reason, the logo changed on mobile view but stayed the same on desktop view. What else can be done?

Thank you, sorted. Searching via site logo ID helped and I found one string that didn't show up before.
