This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client was experiencing issues with WPML not changing the language of the Global Divi Library, specifically with headers and menus not loading the correct translated versions on the front end. Additionally, there were problems with URL translations defaulting to "/" instead of including the language prefix after translation.
Solution:
1. For the header and menu ID translation issue, we advised the client to manually edit the translated header (AR header) and replace the menu English ID with the Arabic ID. This process involves going to Divi > Theme Builder, selecting the Global Header, and updating the IDs accordingly.
2. For the URL translation issue, we recommended using absolute URLs instead of relative ones. For example, translating '/contact' to '/ar/contact' using the Advanced Translation Editor. Additionally, for dynamic page linking, we suggested using the Dynamic field option and selecting "Page Link" with the homepage in the dropdown.
