Overview of the issue
When using Custom Fonts with Elementor and Different domains per language, a Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) Policy issue arises. The custom fonts are always loaded from the original domain, leading to CORS policy errors.
Workaround
- Go to WPML > Settings > Post Types Translation
- Set the post type Custom Fonts (elementor_font) to translate.
- In the same page but in the Custom Fields Translation section, set the custom field elementor_font_files to translate.
- Open your translation in ATE.
- Search for '.ttf' file.
- Once you find it, translate the domain URL for the right one.
- Go to Elementor > Tools.
- Press the to Regenerate Files & Data button.
- Clear browser cache.
So i tried to follow the workaround, but it won't work. 🙁 so where could be the problem?

Thanks for your understanding.
You could also add the following to your .htaccess to get around this issue very easily:
Header set Access-Control-Allow-OriginYou could either allow every page to use it (bad idea)
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "*"Or you could just limit it to the domain of your translated page like this:
Header set Access-Control-Allow-Origin "https://your-translated-domain.com"The .htaccess file should be in the root directory of your WP installation
Thanks for sharing, Timo.
