Hintergrund des Themas:
Ich verwende das Plugin Animations Addons for Elementor von Wealcoder. Die Module aus diesem Plugin (z. B. Animated Text, Animated Title usw.) werden auf jeder Seite eingesetzt. Ich möchte den Inhalt dieser Module mit WPML übersetzen. Allerdings erscheinen keine dieser Texte oder Felder im WPML Translation Manager (Advanced Translation Editor). WPML erkennt die Seite selbst und die standard Elementor-Module, aber nicht die Inhalte innerhalb der Animations-Module. Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link

Die Symptome:
Im Translation Editor werden nur die Standard-Elementor-Texte angezeigt, alle Inhalte aus den Animations Addons-Modulen fehlen vollständig. Dadurch ist es nicht möglich, die animierten Texte oder Titel zu übersetzen.

Fragen:
Warum erscheinen die Inhalte der Animations Addons-Module nicht im WPML Translation Manager?
Wie kann ich die Inhalte der Animations Addons-Module mit WPML übersetzen?

Hi there, I added the test page on your site, named WPML Test. You can edit that page add all of those Animation Add On widgets, save the page, and then edit the page using the WordPress Editor (Not Elementor). Scroll to the bottom and you will find the custom XML configuration code. Add this at WPML -> SEttings -> Custom XML Configuration tab.

As for the post types, i'll use the sandbox site to test further there and let you know what I find.

Hi Laura

Any news on the post type translation? I just saw that in the translation manager there are fields that I dont want to translate. Like CSS and so on. Can you check?

Thanks

I can confirm that the issue is a compatiblity issue with the Automation Addons plugin. To test and confirm, I used the staging site and created a custom post type "Game" using the Automation Add on plugin. I ran into the same issue where I was not able to save the slug translation in WPML Settings.

To rule out that it might be a general WPML bug, I created another Custom Post Type "Car" using the Custom Post Type plugin and was easily able to translate the slug in WPML -> Settings where it saved and you can see it working on the frontend.

I will have to escalate this to our compatibilty team, so I will separate the last issue you mentioned about fields for translation into a new ticket, so that it can be addressed separately and not get confused in the compatibility ticket. Our next available supporter will reply to you there.

I will update here once I have more information from our compatibilty team. In the meantime, it may help speed things along if you can reach out to their plugin author as well and notify them of the incompatibilty.
