Background of the issue:
I have been a WPML user for several years for my website arnaudhomburger-realtor.com. I just installed WPML on my new website arnaudhomburger.com and I am trying to set up my WPML with a translation from English into French, using different domains. I am currently using the domain arnaudhomburger.com for my website in English, and I just purchased the domain arnaudhomburger.fr for the French version.
Symptoms:
The WPML setup wizard requests to fill out the domain name for the French version but it says the domain is invalid.
Questions:
Why does the WPML setup wizard say the domain arnaudhomburger.fr is invalid?
Could you help me set up WPML with different domains for each language?
- Switch to 'Different Languages in Directories' and finalize the configuration setup
- Once finished go to WPML->languages and now switch to "different domains per languages" -> add your URL -> uncheck the box option to "validate on save" and save.
In addition, I see that many translation are missing on my website french version. The visuals of several pages are affected. I don't understand how this is possible while Houzez theme and yourself mention everywhere online that you have a great compatibility. I am hoping to get help from you in order to have a perfect version of my website in french language. Thank you in advance!
Glad to hear the issue was resolved with the help of your dev team!
I would like to request temporary access (wp-admin and FTP) to your site to test the issue.
(preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible)

NOTE: If access to the live site is not possible and the staging site does not exist please provide me with a duplicator package created with the duplicator plugin.
Also, regarding the footer, I can see that this content is pulled from Houzez taxonomies (property city and property type) using a widget.
I was able to resolve by synchronizing the taxonomies from within WPML->Support->Syncrhonize taxonomies for Properties. -- they were missing their assigned translated properties
