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

Problem:
You are trying to ensure that CSS customizations made in the Avada Options are applied across all language versions of your site, but changes made on the English default site do not reflect on the Portuguese site.
Solution:
We recommend following these steps to apply the same CSS customizations across all language versions using the Avada theme:
1. Take a backup of your site first for safety reasons.
2. Navigate to Avada >> Options.
3. Set the language switcher in the admin bar to All languages.
4. Set your theme options/CSS and click Save Changes when done.
For more detailed instructions, please refer to our documentation on using WPML with the Avada theme.

Background of the issue:
I am trying to ensure that CSS customizations made in the AVADA Options are applied across all language versions of my site, specifically the Portuguese version at hidden link.

Symptoms:
Whenever I make a customization on the CSS Options from AVADA on the english default site, the Portuguese site doesn't reflect it, requiring me to manually copy and paste the customization to the BR site (see attachment)

Questions:
Is there a way to make the CSS options from the translation BR to just be the same as ENG default so I can only edit them in one place? CSS should be the same across all languages or not?

Hi,

Thank you for contacting WPML Support. As you are using the Avada theme on your site, in this theme, you can translate theme options by switching different languages using the Language Switcher at the top of the WP Admin panel.

If you want to keep the same styling/theme option in all languages, please follow the below steps:

1. Take a backup of your site first for safety reasons.
2. Go to Avada >> Options.
3. Set the language switcher in the admin bar to All languages.
4. Set your theme options/CSS. When done, click Save Changes.

Here is a doc for more details:

If the above steps don’t help, please add the debug report in the Debug Information box. I have also enabled debug info box for your next reply: https://wpml.org/faq/provide-debug-information-faster-support/

Please let me know the results,
Thank you

wow I can't believe I am learning this just now after 5 years LOL. Thanks for this information.

So, would this also work on posts? Meaning.... if I want to replace images on a post that will be for both languages, can I edit the post in ALL LANGUAGES? or that would override also the text?

I'm glad you found this helpful! However, this setting only applies to Avada theme options and will not work for post types like posts or pages.

Please let me know if this resolves the issue or if you need further assistance with this issue.
Thank you
