juricaV	<b>Background of the issue: </b> I am working on a site under development and want to have uppercased translations of custom post type slugs using WPML. I attempted to set this up by going to Settings -> Post type translations. <b>Symptoms: </b> When I enter an uppercased slug, it saves all as lowercase. <b>Questions: </b> How can I save uppercased translations of custom post type slugs in WPML?

juricaV	Hello Carlos, i managed to get uppercased post slugs when i enter it in lowercase in "wpml settings -> post types translation" and went to string translations to just set the uppercased letters. My issue is that when i go in wpml settings to save something else, after all of this, post types translations go from uppercase to lowercase even when i changed them to work in "string translations".
