[Resolved] Translating text content in Filterable Gallery widget from Essential addon for Elementor
This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: The client was unable to see the content in the text editor box inside the widget in the Advanced Translation Editor (ATE) when using WPML to translate the Filterable Gallery widget from the Essential Addon for Elementor. Solution: We identified an incorrect field definition in the WPML configuration XML. The client initially had
resolved the issue. Additionally, we suggested setting the
editor_type
to "LINE" for fields in the WPML config that are used with the Advanced Translation Editor, as the default is "LINE" and the only field set to "VISUAL" might not display correctly.

Why doesn't the content in the text editor box appear in the ATE editor?

Hello,
In your config, the content field is the only one with editor_type="VISUAL".
editor_type (optional): This is the type of text field used in the WPML Classic Translation Editor. Valid values are LINE, AREA, LINK, and VISUAL. It defaults to LINE if missing.
As you use the Advanced Translation Editor, please try setting it to "LINE".
After updating the config, edit the widget on the original content and then open the translation editor.
If this does not solve the issue, please let us know.
