Background of the issue:
I am trying to translate the footer designed with Divi Theme Builder on my site hidden link. I tried directly on the english area of Divi Theme Builder (successful for the header menu) and then with your translator. In the first case, if I translate in english, I see the translation also in italian. In the second case, I translate the strings but nothing changes on english version. If I can choose, I'd like to translate the footer directly on Divi Theme Builder, as I did with the header.

Symptoms:
The footer designed with Divi Theme Builder is not translated.

Questions:
How can I translate the footer designed with Divi Theme Builder using WPML?
