Hello,

I made a video where I explain how I resolved the issue.

There are a few steps:
1. You need to register custom Elementor Widgets to translation using an XML file. You can read our tutorial here: https://wpml.org/documentation/support/multilingual-tools/registering-custom-elementor-widgets-for-translation/

2. The issue on the frontend (no images) was due to the fact that you added the image as a background but the slide doesn't have any content. Moving the image inside the content resolved the issue.

3. When translating your page you will need to search for "http" in order to see links such as image links and translate them manually.

PS: I didn't remove the test page so you can test it yourself before updating your pages.
