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

Problem:
You are unable to find some text in the WPML editor while trying to translate your website.
Solution:
If the custom XML you added did not resolve the issue, we recommend using the Multilingual Tools plugin to find the correct custom XML. Follow the steps in our documentation on registering custom Elementor widgets for translation. After locating and applying the correct XML, you can remove the Multilingual Tools plugin.

Please note that this solution might be outdated or not applicable to your specific case. We highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the issue persists, please open a new support ticket.
