This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
You are trying to translate your website using WPML, but after adding a translation to a string, it doesn't update on the website front end. Specifically, you are facing problems with the widgets in your footer not displaying translations.
Solution:
We recommend adding the following XML configuration in WPML >> Settings > Custom Configuration section:
<wpml-config><admin-texts><key name="widget_codevz_custom_menu_list"></key><key name="14"></key><key name="items"></key><key name="*"><key name="title"></key><key name="link"></key></key><key name="widget_codevz_stylish_list"></key><key name="9"></key><key name="items"></key><key name="*"><key name="subtitle"></key><key name="link"></key></key><key name="widget_codevz_stylish_list"></key><key name="6"></key><key name="items"></key><key name="*"><key name="subtitle"></key><key name="link"></key></key><key name="widget_codevz_stylish_list"></key><key name="3"></key><key name="items"></key><key name="*"><key name="subtitle"></key><key name="link"></key></key></admin-texts></wpml-config>

Hi, Thank you for contacting WPML Support. Apologies for the delay due to an unusually high workload. Your chat has now been assigned to me, and I’ll ensure a quicker response time moving forward. I’ve reviewed your site and noticed that a few strings in the footer are still untranslated. Could you please make sure you have followed the below steps: 1. Go to WPML >> String Translation page. Here are docs for more details: https://wpml.org/faq/why-arent-my-translated-strings-showing-up-on-the-front-end-of-my-site/ If the issue persists, please provide temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP Login info) to your site (preferably staging site), so that I can look into your setup and debug the issue. Your next answer will be private, meaning only you and I can access it. === Please backup your database and website === ✙ I would additionally need your permission to deactivate and reactivate Plugins and the Theme and to change configurations on the site. This is also a reason the backup is essential. Thank you  |

I’m able to fix it by adding the below XML in WPML >> Settings > Custom Configuration section:
<wpml-config>
<admin-texts>
<key name="widget_codevz_custom_menu_list">
<key name="14">
<key name="items">
<key name="*">
<key name="title"/>
<key name="link"/>
</key>
</key>
</key>
</key>
<key name="widget_codevz_stylish_list">
<key name="9">
<key name="items">
<key name="*">
<key name="subtitle"/>
<key name="link"/>
</key>
</key>
</key>
</key>
<key name="widget_codevz_stylish_list">
<key name="6">
<key name="items">
<key name="*">
<key name="subtitle"/>
<key name="link"/>
</key>
</key>
</key>
</key>
<key name="widget_codevz_stylish_list">
<key name="3">
<key name="items">
<key name="*">
<key name="subtitle"/>
<key name="link"/>
</key>
</key>
</key>
</key>
</admin-texts>
</wpml-config>
And now the footer is shows the correct translation at frontend as you can see in the attached screenshot. Here is a doc for more details: Please note that we limit one issue per chat/ticket as per our support policy, that’s why I created two new tickets for those two new issues: 1. Custom Menu Links Translation: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/custom-links-in-primary-menu-translation/ 2. Cookie Popup translation: If the footer translation issue is solved, please mark the current ticket as resolved and we will continue on the above tickets for other issues. Thank you for your cooperation and patience  |
