I'm trying to redirect a form to a new page using url parameters, these parameters are filled with information from the form. Each form field generates a field shortcode.
Example: [field id="utm_source"]

If tried some documentation and form posts, and I think my problem is similar to the following question: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/url-with-parameter-not-available-for-translation-elementor-wpml/

I will need it to be recognised as an url, but don't know the exact XML I need to use.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Thank you for contacting the support.

In the light of that thread, you 'll need to register the short code and its attributes, in WPML -> Settings -> Custom XML configuration.

Please see https://wpml.org/documentation/support/language-configuration-files/#page-builder-content for details.

Then make small change to the content, save and update translation.

Please let me know if this helps.

Regards.

Hi,

Thank you for you're reply!

I think that you are referring to the "translate link target"?
https://wpml.org/documentation/support/language-configuration-files/#page-builder-content:~:text=can%20use%20the-,translate_link_target,-attribute%20to%20force

The thing is that it does show up in the back-end to translate, but it does not see it as a url or something. When adding my translation of the url it does "work".

However, the url needs to be as followed.
hidden link

When WMPL thinks it needs to be translated it changes it in to this.
hidden link

Every "&" changes into "&amp".

Sorry that this part was not clear in the initial question!

Regards.
