[Resolved] Broken page rendering due to unclosed span in admin notice

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

Problem:
If you're experiencing an issue with an unclosed 

<span>

tag in the file 

woocommerce-multilingual/inc/class-wcml-cart-sync-warnings.php

on line 87, and a recommendation to use 

add_query_arg()

instead of string concatenation.
Solution:
We recommend updating to WooCommerce Multilingual version 5.5.0 or higher, as this update addresses the issue. If the problem persists after updating, or if this solution does not apply to your case, please check related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verify the version of the permanent fix, and confirm that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins.

Background of the issue:
In same admin notice where I already reported other bug https://wpml.org/forums/topic/invalid-url-in-admin-notice/ theree is an unclosed "" which subsequently breaks HTML/rendering

<div class="message error otgs-is-dismissible">
							<p>Because of some elements in your site configuration, when the users switch the currency or the language on the front end, the cart content might not be synchronized correctly.</p>
							<ul>
								<li>Woocommerce Product Bundles</li>
							</ul>
							<p>
								It is recommended that you
								<strong>
									<a href="<em><u>hidden link</u></em>">configure WooCommerce Multilingual &Multicurrency</a>
								</strong>
								with the option to reset the cart in a situation like this.
								<strong>
									<a href="/?page_id=1141378&utm_source=plugin&utm_medium=gui&utm_campaign=wcml" target="_blank" rel="noopener">More details</a>
								</strong>
							</p>
							<a class="notice-dismiss" href="/wp-admin/&wcml_action=dismiss_cart_warning">
		<span class="screen-reader-text">Dismiss
							</a>
						</div>
[php]

the [php]<span class="screen-reader-text">Dismiss

is missing the closing

Symptoms:
The page is rendering incorrectly due to broken HTML caused by an unclosed tag in the admin notice.

Questions:
Fix it.

The file is woocommerce-multilingual\inc\class-wcml-cart-sync-warnings.php line 87 it's missing the </span>

Same line is also the URL for https://wpml.org/forums/topic/invalid-url-in-admin-notice/

You should be using add_query_arg() instead of concat

Hi,

the workaround from https://wpml.org/forums/topic/invalid-url-in-admin-notice/ will also cover the span tag.

Best Regards,
