narinobuF	I am trying to:Duplicate page from the translated template page I made. I'm already deactivated plugins. Link to a page where the issue can be seen: Template page:hidden link Duplicated page and contact form:hidden link I expected to see:Page and contact form would be translated. Instead, I got:Page and contact form isn't trancelated.

Bruno Kos Supporter Languages: English (English ) German (Deutsch ) French (Français ) Timezone: Europe/Zagreb (GMT+01:00)	Hi, Thank you for contacting WPML support! There are couple of things that aren't done properly here: - You duplicated page using a plugin which in fact duplicated page from same language to same language -- Please read this manual in order to understand how this works: https://wpml.org/documentation/translating-your-contents/displaying-untranslated-content-on-pages-in-secondary-languages/using-content-duplication/ - You also need to translate contact form, like this: https://wpml.org/documentation/related-projects/using-contact-form-7-with-wpml/ I suggest you have a look at all documentation on how to properly work WPML and how to translate things. Regards, Bruno Kos

narinobuF	Hi, Thank you for reply. I understand not to use the plugin "Duplicate Post" when I duplicate post. I tried to duplicate a contact form and page from "WPML Translation Management", but no duplicate ones in the "WPML Translation Management". Thank you

I am not sure what you mean? Translation management keeps track of originals, allowing you to translate them then, not duplicates, there is no point in making duplicate of a duplicate.

narinobuF	I have the contact form(named "template") translated Chinese and Japanese. I'd like to duplicate this contact form(e.g. "template2") with translated Chinese and Japanese.

I'm not sure what you mean - you only have to translate this contact form and the translation will appear automatically on the translated pages, is it not happening? Like this https://wpml.org/documentation/related-projects/using-contact-form-7-with-wpml/#translate-your-forms Regards, Bruno Kos
