Thank you for your response.
Can you confirm that, for example, for a form page, instead of using the WPML editor, I should use the manual translation method, specifically for this page, to solve the problem? Can I have some pages that use the WPML editor and other pages that use the manual solution? If I've understood correctly, the important thing is not to mix methods on a page.

Hello,

I can not confirm you should be using the manual method, since I am not sure how form was created/translated, but you are free to use the method you wish and that works best for you.

Yes that is correct, when doing the switch as explained in the docs, you can choose to use WordPress editor (manual method) on that page, all pages etc.

Regards,
Drazen
