Problem:
The client was experiencing an issue where links that were previously translated using WPML and Elementor reverted back to their original language. Despite the XML code being intact, the translated links disappeared.
Solution:
We recommended the following steps:
1. Navigate to WPML -> Settings -> Custom XML Configuration tab.
2. Replace the existing XML with the new provided XML.
<wpml-config>...</wpml-config>
3. Save the changes.
4. Edit the homepage in the original language, make a small change to the content, save the changes, and update the translation.
If the issue persisted, we suggested editing the XML code to change a specific line from:
<field editor_type="LINK">witr_button_link>url</field>
to:
<field editor_type="LINK" key_of="witr_button_link">url</field>
Then, save the changes and update the homepage in the original language and the translation.
