This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
If you're experiencing issues with your shop's mega menu brand logos referring to the original language instead of the translated one,
Solution:
We recommend adding the following code in WPML -> Settings -> Custom XML Configuration to register the non-standard Elementor Widget (Image or SVG) used for brand logos and custom links for translation:
<wpml-config>
<elementor-widgets>
<widget name="wd_image_or_svg">
<fields>
<field>image>url</field>
<field>image>id</field>
<field>image>size</field>
<field>image>alt</field>
<field>image>source</field>
<field>on_click_action</field>
<field>link>url</field>
<field>scroll_y</field>
</fields>
</widget>
<elementor-widgets>
</wpml-config>
After adding the code, you can translate the necessary fields directly in the translation editor. For further guidance on registering custom Elementor widgets for translation, please refer to our guide:
Registering Custom Elementor Widgets for Translation.
Additionally, to translate URLs, shortcodes, and HTML attributes using the Advanced Translation Editor (ATE), you can search for "http" within ATE, and it will display all the links for translation. For more details, check out this guide:
How to Translate URLs, Shortcodes, and HTML Attributes using ATE.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation. I was able to fix this by adding the following code in WPML -> Settings -> Custom XML Configuration:
<wpml-config>
<elementor-widgets>
<widget name="wd_image_or_svg">
<fields>
<field>image>url</field>
<field>image>id</field>
<field>image>size</field>
<field>image>alt</field>
<field>image>source</field>
<field>on_click_action</field>
<field>link>url</field>
<field>scroll_y</field>
</fields>
</widget>
</elementor-widgets>
</wpml-config>
Since that Elementor Widget (Image or SVG) used for brand logo and custom link, isn't a standard one, so it needed to be registered with WPML for translation. The above code now brings all fields of that widget into the translation editor, where you can translate as needed (see attached). So now you can go to edit "Shop - Mega Menu" in default language and click pencil icon to update the translation. And when in Translation Editor, search for the links and translate accordingly. For future references, if you use such a widget which doesn't bring its content for translation, you'll need to register it too. Check this guide https://wpml.org/documentation/related-projects/wpml-compatibility-test-tools-plugin/registering-custom-elementor-widgets-for-translation/ for details.  |

These are all available in ATE. You need to search for "http" and the ATE 'll show all these links (see attached). Check this guide https://wpml.org/faq/how-to-translate-urls-shortcodes-and-html-attributes-using-the-advanced-translation-editor/ for details.   |

Hi Waqas, Thank you for your help, I managed to translate everything. However, there is a gap between the header and the slider when the website is translated. And if you click on Shop you will see that the images are missing and just plant text. Could you please, help me with this one? Thank you in advance ,  |
