This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The client is facing two issues: 1) Unable to find and translate the footer content in the Quere theme using WPML. 2) Incorrect display of Contact Form 7 forms in different languages on the footer and contact page, despite correct settings in Elementor.
Solution:
For translating the footer:
1. Check the WPML → Translation Dashboard for any unscanned texts and use the search function to find specific footer phrases.
2. If not found, navigate to WPML → Theme and plugins localization, select the Quere theme, and scan for strings. Then, use WPML → String Translation to add translations.

For resolving Contact Form 7 issues:
1. Ensure the Contact Form 7 Multilingual plugin is active. If not, download and activate it.
2. Translate the forms via WPML → Translation Dashboard, select the forms, and send them for translation.
3. Clear any site caches to reflect changes.

If these steps do not resolve the issues or if the footer still cannot be found for translation and the forms display incorrectly in some languages, it may be necessary to directly contact our support. We recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the problem persists, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.

Hello,
My name is Carlos, and I will continue working on this ticket

1.- Please describe step-by-step how to reproduce the issue on the site. You can attach screenshots or create a video (using Loom, Kommodo, or any other tool) and share the link. This will allow us to understand the issue and reproduce it on our side.

2.- Increase the WP memory Limit. Minimum requirements are 128Mb: https://wpml.org/home/minimum-requirements/
You can add this to wp-config.php to increase WP memory:`

/* Memory Limit */
define('WP_MEMORY_LIMIT', '512M');

- Add it above the line /* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */

You can double-check the WordPress memory limit in WPML -> Support

Looking forward to your message.

Hi,
Thank you very much for your messages

1.- The WordPress memory limit is different than the PHP memory limit, which is the reason why I asked you to add the line of code in wo-config.php, to increase the WordPress memory limit. You can see the WordPress memory limit in WPML -> Support

2.- Please share the access credentials to the site in your next message, which I have set private. This will allow me to reproduce the issue with the footer and check the configuration.

Confirm you have created a full site backup that you can restore if necessary.
