Background of the issue:
I need to translate a button link on my site hidden link, the red buttons in my german and danish sites doesn't translate from english. It's the Products page. I have added the button/url to string translation in 'Translate texts in admin screen'.

Symptoms:
The button/url doesn't appear in string translation.

Questions:
How can I make the button/url appear in string translation, so I can translate the URL?

Hi,

I copied the website and I had to change the separate domain mode as it was not working correctly on the copied website, then it worked ok.

I mean I found the links available on the translation editor (check the screenshot)

You can login yourself with the same login info:
hidden link

Also please check the Danish version that I changed the link:

hidden link

I just added DA on the link to see it is not the English version.

Now this shows it might be a problem of extra plugins or cache that cause sthe issue.

The only thing that I can suggest at the moment is that you create a backup of the website and wait for a weekend with low amount of site viewers to avid disrupting the live site too much and test by deactivating all plugins except:

Elementor
Elementor Pro
WPML Multilingual CMS
WPML String Translation.

And then go to the product page in English and change the links to something else and then try to translate it and search the link on the translation editor search box like the screenshot I attached.

See if you can find it there to translate.

Thanks.

I haven't tried the solution you suggested yet. Not solved.
