All issues in which we had to help clients with Elementor Custom Widgets either because they wanted to create one, or (more likely) when related to themes that have Elementor Custom Widgets integrated. Add whether you helped, sent to docs or escalated.
Problem: When using WPML with Elementor, after translating a page to secondary languages, any new text added in the original language and updated in translation causes previously saved button links to revert to the original. Solution: To fix this issue, you need to register custom page builder widgets for translation of the Hub theme by Liquid Themes. This involves adjusting the
wpml-config.xml
file in your theme to include the links in the translation process. Here is a step-by-step guide: 1. Check if your Hub theme's by Liquid Themes
wpml-config.xml
file already includes widget translation configurations. 2. Modify the XML configuration to add the button links for translation. For example, add the following field to your button widget configuration:
<field type="Heading: Link URL" editor_type="LINK">link>url</field>

Problem: El cliente necesitaba generar código XML para traducir ciertos widgets en su sitio y no sabía cómo identificar el LABEL correspondiente para cada palabra. Solution: Primero, proporcionamos el código XML necesario para la traducción de varios widgets, especificando los campos relevantes para cada uno. Aquí está el código XML que debes añadir a tu configuración de WPML:
Además, para traducir un campo específico ('cantidad-de-dias'), te indicamos que vayas a WPML --> Configuración --> Traducción de campos personalizados y configures 'cantidad-de-dias' como traducible. Luego, realiza un pequeño cambio en el producto original y actualiza la traducción.

Problem: The client is unable to translate the carousel and its captions on their website using Elementor. Solution: First, we asked the client to confirm if they are using a standard Elementor carousel or a custom widget. We then suggested checking if the captions can be found using the search bar at the top of the translation editor. If the captions are still not translatable, we recommended registering the widget manually for translation. Detailed steps for this process can be found in our documentation: How to Register Page Builder Widgets for Translation.

Problem: Der Kunde hat Probleme mit der Übersetzung von Elementor Widgets im Footer seiner Website. Speziell gibt es keine Funktion "WPML: Elementor Widgets" für das Bildergalerie-Widget auf der Seite. Solution: 1. Für die Custom XML Widgets des Themes muss eine eigene Config angelegt werden. Dies macht das Elementor Widget im Translation Editor sichtbar und übersetzbar. Hierfür kann die Config global generiert werden: https://wpml.org/documentation/related-projects/wpml-compatibility-test-tools-plugin/registering-custom-elementor-widgets-for-translation/. 2. Alternativ kann der WPML Editor in der rechten Sidebar deaktiviert und das Widget manuell in Elementor bearbeitet werden. 3. Es wird empfohlen, Themes zu erwerben, die auf https://wpml.org/theme als zertifiziert gelistet sind, um sicherzustellen, dass sie vollständig mit WPML kompatibel sind und keine Missverständnisse wie die auf Themeforest beschriebenen auftreten.
Falls diese Lösung nicht relevant oder veraltet ist, oder falls sie nicht auf Ihr Problem zutrifft, empfehlen wir Ihnen, ein neues Support-Ticket zu öffnen. Wir empfehlen auch, die Seite mit bekannten Problemen (https://wpml.org/known-issues/) zu überprüfen, die Version der dauerhaften Lösung zu verifizieren und zu bestätigen, dass Sie die neuesten Versionen von Themes und Plugins installiert haben.

Problem: The client was unable to find and translate a specific string in the header of their website using WPML. Solution: 1. To make the custom Marquee Elementor element compatible with the WPML Translation Editor, we added the following XML configuration in WPML >> Settings > Custom XML Configuration section:
After this, we made a small change in the default language header template and translated the header in the secondary language. This made the marquee element content available for translation. 2. For translating the 'Donation' text, we followed these steps: - Navigated to WPML >> String Translation page. - Clicked on the 'Translate texts in the admin screen' link at the bottom of the page. - Searched for the string and enabled its translation. - Assigned the correct source language and added the translation of that string. - Cleared the cache to reflect the updated translation. For further details, you can refer to the following documentation links:
