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

Problem:
I can't find how to translate the content added in some Elementor templates added to my pages.

Solution:
The content was added to some Elementor sections which are not translated, then the sections were added to a global template. To translate the content you need to translate those sections first.

Hi,

Could you please confirm that you're following our guide to translate the content created with Elementor? https://wpml.org/documentation/plugins-compatibility/elementor/

You should be able to translate those widgets with the WPML translation editor if they're supported. Please check the list of supported widgets: https://wpml.org/documentation/plugins-compatibility/elementor/#List-of-the-translatable-Elementor-Elements

But if you're using custom widgets, please follow our guide here to register them first: https://wpml.org/documentation/support/language-configuration-files/how-to-register-page-builder-widgets-for-translation/

After that, make a small change to the original page and update it then update the translation and check if you can see those texts in the translation editor.

Kind regards,
Mohamed

The content of the 3 blocks and the slider was added by global templates which are not translated yet.

Please go to WPML > Translation Management, and use the search filters to find the following templates then translate them:

- Home Slider
- Global Section - Revisioni Guida Normative

Kindly check our guide for more details: https://wpml.org/documentation/plugins-compatibility/elementor/#translate-elementor-templates

You're using another section inside the Global widget which needs to be translated first, please click on this link which will take you to the Elementor templates library: hidden link

And click the (+) sign next to the "Revisioni – Guida – Normative" to create the translation for this content.

Then go back to the same list hidden link and click the gear icon to complete the translation of the global widget "Global Section – Revisioni Guida Normative"
