This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: You are trying to automatically translate content created with Elementor using WPML, but the Elementor content is not visible for translation. The 'WPML: Elementor Widgets' section remains empty, indicating that all widgets are already registered, yet the translation does not include Elementor content. Solution: The issue was due to a missing database table named 'icl_string_packages'. To resolve this, you need to create this table in your database. Here is the SQL query you should run:
CREATE TABLE `wp_icl_string_packages` ( `ID` bigint(20) unsigned NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `kind_slug` varchar(160) COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NOT NULL, `kind` varchar(160) COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NOT NULL, `name` varchar(160) COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NOT NULL, `title` varchar(160) COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NOT NULL, `edit_link` text COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NOT NULL, `view_link` text COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci NOT NULL, `post_id` int(11) DEFAULT NULL, `word_count` varchar(2000) COLLATE utf8mb4_unicode_ci DEFAULT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`ID`)) ENGINE=InnoDB DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8mb4 COLLATE=utf8mb4_unicode_ci;
After running this query, return to the original page and click on update.

Background of the issue:
I'm trying to translate automatically the content of the website made with Elementor. I have all the pages completed in English (main language of the website) with Elementor. I proceeded sending some pages to automatic translation with WPML. I proceeded installing the "WPML - Config Generator for Elementor" as suggested but the "WPML: Elementor Widgets" section remains empty, it just says: All widgets on this page are already registered" but if I try translating the page it doesn't translate the elementor content.
Symptoms:
The Elementor content is not visible for translation by WPML. Only the part of WordPress basic builder is translated but all the content of Elementor is still in English. The field WPML: Elementor Widgets remains empty.
Questions:
Why is the Elementor content not visible for translation by WPML?
How can I ensure that Elementor content is included in the automatic translation process?
Alright, I thought you were going to do it yourself. Then I saw your indications to do it. I tried but when it's time to connect to the website on cloudways I get an error message.
Yes, please do it, I cannot.
