Hi there,

I can see you had a chat with my colleague which closed due to inactivity.

These are the steps that were shared.

go to WPML > String translation > Not seeing strings that you are looking for? > Admin text. Search for that text, and add It to string translation. Then go to String translation and translate them.

Please let me know your results.

If after following these steps you still have the same issue and can't locate the string, share with me the exact string we need to translate as It's hard to tell from the screenshots.

Also for reference, this is the chat you had originally:
