[Assigned] WPML no recognizing JetSmartFilter taxonomy

Background of the issue:
I am trying to make the filtering options (JetSmart Filter) appear and work properly on translated languages. The issue can be seen on this page: hidden link
Symptoms:
I see the name of the filters but no options appear, as if WPML didn't recognize the JetSmartFilter taxonomy. The only filter that works is the age, as the values are numbers and they don't need translation. But when an option is translated, it doesn't work.
Questions:
Why are the JetSmartFilter options not appearing on translated pages?
How can I make the translated filter options work properly?
While one of my teammates handles your ticket, I will provide you with initial debugging steps.
Have you attempted to follow the documentation provided below?

Please update your WPML plugin and add-ons to the latest version, 4.7.2, to benefit from the latest bug fixes and improvements. This may not necessarily resolve your problem; however, we need to work on the newest code available to troubleshoot the issue best.
You can check the latest released versions under "My Account -> Downloads" on this site. Instructions to update can be found here: http://wpml.org/faq/install-wpml/
If you do not see the updates, you might need to click the Check for updates button in the Plugins → Add New Plugin → Commercial tab.
You need to make sure that the JetSmartFilters plugin is also updated.
Please remember to backup your database before you proceed.
Let us know if the issue persists after an update has been done.
- Please backup the site files and database before providing us access.
- If you have a staging site where the problem can be reproduced, it is better to share access to the staging site.
as the documentation says, some of the option might not be picked by WPML translation editor, so you need to edit 2nd language manually and adjustthe needed values.
For one filter example in EN, you need to set the correct taxonomy and term:
- hidden link
I would advise checking all and adjusting if needed all languages.
Hi, thanks for your feedback, I tried but there is no way to select a value in English, the "value" should be "Poet" or "Winner" and I can't select anything, as if it was not related.
I attach screeshots to explain what I mean, showing version in English and in French.
Hi, I managed to add the fields, following the process you explained, but it seems they are not recognized, as no, no "challenger" are found in English. So now the situation is that the filter appears but the filter doesn't work in English.
Thanks,
Alexia
