This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client needed assistance with editing and translating the 'About me' widget, as they were unable to find the correct string translation.
Solution:
1. We noticed that the client had already created a Dutch (NL) version of the widget, but it was set to display in both languages.
2. We directed the client to the Widgets section of their WordPress dashboard, where they could edit the widget's content and adjust language display settings.
3. We provided a screenshot to guide the client in selecting the correct option to ensure that each widget appears only in its respective language.
4. We also shared a link to our documentation on translating widgets with WPML for further assistance:

Hi there. In regards to the "About me" widget, I can see that you found a way to create the NL version, too, but the NL version was set to show on both languages so I went here (hidden link) > clicked on the NL version > and then I selected the option in the screenshot I attached. So now each widget shows correctly on each of the two languages. That's also the place from where you can edit the content inside the widget. There's also some helpful documentation regarding translating widgets with WPML: Mihai  |
