ernestB-3	I think i have fixed some of wpml errors but i'm still having some other issues: First one is the elementor templates translation, basically wpml is only detecting the title field (it's not detecting the elementor form widget for example) see here => hidden link Second problem which i mentioned earlier is the "property posts" generated using a plugin. here's the access and you have full authorization to copy the site or whatever's necessary to fully translate the website into chinese (simplified)

Please check the template in question and determine which plugin is used to create that. If there is a plugin that is not compatible with WPML you have two choices: Longer route: Ask the developer of the plugin to make their plugin compatible with WPML. They can get started here: https://wpml.org/documentation/plugins-compatibility/elementor/how-to-add-wpml-support-to-custom-elementor-widgets/ https://wpml.org/documentation/support/multilingual-tools/registering-custom-elementor-widgets-for-translation/ Shorter Route: Consider using manual translation for that specific template: https://wpml.org/documentation/translating-your-contents/using-different-translation-editors-for-different-pages/ Thanks.

ernestB-3	The widget is the default "Form" from elementor pro which i believe is compatible with WPML so i'm not sure why it's not working properly. please check the template named "make an offer" with the ID=14564. asap

Christopher Amirian WPML Supporter since 07/2020 Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Yerevan (GMT+04:00)	Hi, Thank you. It seems to be related to the fact that the WPML String Translation plugin was deactivated. I activated the plugin and went to WPML > Translation Management, found the template in question from the Elementor Templates section and sent it to automatic translation. After that I went to WP Dashboard > Templates and found the template and clicked the pencil icon to double check and found that content was detected. (Screenshot) Thanks.

ernestB-3	Thank you for finding out the problem, i have also increased the memory limit to 1024mb. However there's still one issue related to the template with form: basically it's getting translated succesfully but in the frontend we don't see the translated version (still english) please check this loom: hidden link
