Problem:
The client reported an issue where Elementor defaults to a language other than the admin's language in the editor. They inquired about the progress of a feature to use Elementor in the native language, which was promised for a future WPML version.
Solution:
We have escalated the issue to our development team, but currently, there is no permanent solution. We recommend using the Advanced Translation Editor to translate content built with Elementor, so editing the translation in the French language is not necessary. As a workaround, continue deleting the mo and po files as previously discussed in this ticket.

If this solution does not resolve your issue or seems outdated, please check the related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verify the version of the permanent fix, and confirm that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. We highly recommend opening a new support ticket if the problem persists. For further assistance, you can contact us through our support forum.
