[Resolved] Not able to fully translate Elementor Price Table

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
If you're experiencing issues with translating Elementor Price Tables in WPML, specifically the currency and price not appearing as options for translation, and they are also missing under WPML > String translation, this summary might help.
Solution:
This configuration is the correct configuration for "Price Table". You can add this config at WPML > Settings > Custom XML Configuration. After that, edit the widget, save the page and open the WPML Translation Editor.

Note that translating the currency dropdown might not work exactly as expected, as it does not include any text. You will need to translate the option value, like for example USD is "dollar" and EUR is "euro". This configuration seems to work only if the original content is not using USD.
We have escalated both issues to our compatibility team for further revision.

If this solution does not resolve your issue or seems irrelevant due to being outdated or not applicable to your case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If needed, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.

Background of the issue:
I have been very happy with WPML so far, but have discovered an issue with translating Elementor Price Tables. The currency and price is not showing up as an option to translate. I have tried searching for these values under WPML > String translation, but they are not there either. I did try to enable "Look for strings while pages are rendered" but no luck.

The affected pages are (default language is Norwegian)
hidden link, hidden link (english), hidden link, hidden link (english)

Symptoms:
The currency and price in Elementor Price Tables are not showing up as an option to translate.

Questions:
How can I translate the currency and price in Elementor Price Tables using WPML?
Why are the currency and price not appearing in WPML > String translation?

Hello,

Did you already try to search for amount and currency symbol using the search field in the top section of the WPML Advanced Translation Editor?

If this will not solve the issue, please let me know.

Best regards

It doesn't appear in the WPML Translation Editor, then I would have noticed it, don't you think? Searching for it does not find anything.

Thank you for the confirmation!

I will try to recreate this issue on a new test site and then get back to you.

Please add this markup at WPML > Settings > Custom XML Config:

<wpml-config>
	<elementor-widgets>
  	<widget name="price-list">
    	<fields-in-item items_of="price_list">
      	<field type="Pricing list: title">title</field>
        <field editor_type="AREA" type="Pricing list: description">item_description</field>
        <field editor_type="LINE" type="Pricing list: price">price</field>
        <field editor_type="LINK" type="Pricing list: link" key_of="link">url</field>
      </fields-in-item>
    </widget>
  </elementor-widgets>
</wpml-config>

Now open the page in Elementor, edit the price list widget, save the page and open the WPML Translation Editor.

I will forward this config to our compatibility so that we can take care of updating the config for Elementor.

I have added the Custom XML, edited pages with price table in them, made small changes here and there (including the price table itself) but WPML does not appear to register any of this.

There is still no option to translate these strings/values from the translation editor, nor does these values appear in the string translation option.

Sorry for the misunderstanding. I created a config for "Price List", while you are using "Price Table".

Here is an updated config:

<wpml-config>
  <elementor-widgets>
    <widget name="price-list">
      <fields>
        <field>price_list</field>
      </fields>
      <fields-in-item items_of="price_list">
        <field>title</field>
        <field>item_description</field>
        <field>price</field>
        <field>link>url</field>        
      </fields-in-item>
    </widget>
    <widget name="price-table">
      <fields>
        <field>heading</field>
        <field>sub_heading</field>
        <field>currency_symbol</field>
        <field>price</field>
        <field>period</field>
        <field>features_list</field>
        <field>button_text</field>
        <field>footer_additional_info</field>
        <field>ribbon_title</field>
      </fields>
      <fields-in-item items_of="features_list">
        <field>item_text</field>        
      </fields-in-item>
    </widget>
  </elementor-widgets>
</wpml-config>

The issue with this is, that we can not translate the currency dropdown exactly, as it does not include any text. You will need to translate the option value, like for example USD is "dollar" and EUR is "euro". Also, this only seems to work if the original content is not using USD.

I am escalating both issues to our compatibility team for further revision.
