To be more specific, could You please instruct me.

on hidden link I lithuanian lang I input lithuanian Kategorijos hidden link but then in string translation it saves to english version hidden link and doesnt allow me to edit it.

Hi,

There are two subjects here that you must be aware of.

1. Translating widgets.

Please check our guide on widget translation.

https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-widgets/

In your case, you need to follow theTranslate Legacy Widgets section.

You can also Display Different Widgets in Each Language.

2. Change the language of a string.

If a string is associated with the wrong language, you can change the language of the string. Please learn about it here and see the attached screenshot.

Regards,
Itamar.
