brendaM-4	Tell us what you are trying to do? I have translated many pages, the title of those in the menu are yet showing up in english. I have used string translation to work that out, but it is not working. I cleared WPML cache and also site cache, but it doesn't work. Is there any documentation that you are following? Is there a similar example that we can see? What is the link to your site? sorensonglodev.wpengine.com/es

You can not translate such strings with String Translation directly. Instead, any strings coming from Elementor posts, pages, or templates need to get translated with the WPML Translation Editor. Guide: https://wpml.org/documentation/plugins-compatibility/elementor/ Further, if you refer to a menu, then you can edit the menu titles directly at Appearance > Menus by translating the menu manually: Guide: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-menus/#option-2-translating-menus-manually Best regards Andreas

brendaM-4	Hi, I tried both things and when I look for templates, none are shown. But also, before I submitted the ticket when I tried string translations, for one of the translations did work (Personal Services), but then the others didn't. That's why I am thinking could be cache
