Problem: The client was unable to translate certain sections of their website, specifically the Service Categories in the Case Tab Scroll widget, which were pulling data from the Services custom post type. Solution: We discovered that the Service Categories taxonomy was set to 'Not translatable' in the WPML settings. To resolve this, we changed the setting for Service Categories (service-category) to:

For demonstration, we updated one category by adding 'EN' to its name. The client should review and update the remaining categories similarly.
