berndK-15	Translating the label of dropdown list for my search form turned it into a text input and the dropdown functionality is now gone for my german language. I would like it to not turn into a text input... Also, I cannot find the string for the For Sale and For Rent on the homepage at the top. I've tried all of the methods mentioned.

First of all, sorry for the late reply; it was due to a higher workload. Please try the following steps: 1- Go to WPML-> Theme and plugins localization, select your theme/plugin, and scan 2- Go to WPML-> String Translation 3- Scroll down and click on the "Translate texts in admin screens »" link 4- Search for the needed strings 5- Select the strings 6- Click on the "Add to String Translation" button 7- Then click on the "« Return to String Translation" link 8- Translate the strings, clear the cache, and check the front end Kindly check our guide to know more about translating texts in the admin texts screen. (https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/finding-strings-that-dont-appear-on-the-string-translation-page/) Best regards, Osama
