    Hello to everybody! Since I had some troubles understanding if Polylang was working well with Woodmart I just wanted to share my experience with everybody. Hopefully it can help.

    First of all, Header Builder:
    You can’t directly translate an Header but there is an easy way to fix it.
    What i found out to be the best solution is:
    1) Duplicate your header for each language you need;
    2) Modify the copies according to the language you would like to assing;
    3) While modifying the header, copy the header number in the url. It looks like something like this: “header_992211”
    3) Go to Polylang Languages -> Translations
    4) Search for the string Named “default_header”
    5) Put the header number in the field of the language desired.
    6) Et Voilà. Now the language you choose has its header.

    Now, about the Slider:
    At first I couldn’t show the slider on other languages.
    But there is an easy fix to that:
    1) Go to Polylang Languages -> Settings
    2) Under “Type of custom articles and taxonomy” check elementor_library
    3) Go to Slides -> All Items
    4) Click on the plus symbol on the flag column to add a transaltion. Remember to flag the Slider Name (the slider in which you want those slide to be shown).
    5) Now the slider will work in multiple languages

    Last is the footer.
    I advise to just use the HTML Blocks instead of the widgets.
    Enable the translation if needed under Polylang Languages -> Settings -> Type of custom articles and taxonomy
    This way you can just go to HTML Blocks in the menu and translate the wanted footer.

    Hope this could be useful to somebody else.

    Enjoy,

    Matteo
