See attached 4 images:
1. First, I had to uncheck and recheck the WPML media attachment options for the media to show up in Classic Editor. Before I did that, there was no media in Classic Editor.
2. As you can see, all the images are translated.
3. In Media Translation, images are also translated.
4. On the French page front end, the images are not translated.

Please provide a solution.

Hello,

Welcome to the WPML support forum. I will do my best to help you to resolve the issue.

Hope you are following the steps described here for translating the media files - https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/media-translation/#using-different-images-and-media-across-languages

Please try the following steps after a full site backup{mandatory} and make sure the issue is existing or not.

1) Upgrade to the latest version of WPML(4.6.4 series)
2) Upgrade to the latest version of Elementor & its pro plugin(3.14.1)
3) Increase *WP Memory Limit* to *256* MB(the minimum required memory limit for WPML is *128*). Please check the following links for more details

https://wpml.org/home/minimum-requirements/

https://developer.wordpress.org/apis/wp-config-php/#increasing-memory-allocated-to-php

4) Increase the *MaxInputVars* of PHP settings to *10000*. Please check the following article for more details and contact your system admin/hosting provider for upgrading this configuration.

Thanks for the response. We already have the settings based on your suggestions. Images were not translating while we were working on it for a couple of days even though all the settings were properly set up. We also tried it at various times and in different regions and it wasn't working. It's working now and we don't know why.

Hello,

Thank you for the feedback. It looks like updating the plugins and upgrading the systems configurations helped to resolve the issue.

Just to make sure, please try with a new post or page with a couple of images and translate it. Then make sure you are getting the expected results or not.
