You are right, when opening the translation it was actually completed to 100%.
Once I revise now the Spanish form on the backend, it actually looks as if translating the fields this way, will not be possible. There are not any fields created on the Spanish form:

In this case, please go to the English form and switch the translation method to WordPress-Editor.
Then open the Spanish translation and create the translation directly inside the WordPress Editor. Do this for all languages.
Hi,
I cannot get it work, I switched to the WordPress Editor and then to a langauge and also there are no fields.
What can I do?
If you need access to the stagin site again, please let me knwo (I updated it because of a server error)
Thanks, kind regards
Eric
Hi,
I tried the duplicate way, here are all translations shown, but I have a translated type in the system, the test application form is not shown in the drop down field in the job.
So what now here, seems to be this is not multilanguage, do you have a workaround here? Or do you have a further idea, to solve this problem?
Thanks, kind regards

Hi,
I would like to offer to take a closer look and request temporary access (wp-admin and FTP) to the site to investigate the issue further.
The required fields are below the comment section when you log in to leave the next reply. The information you provide is private, meaning only you and I can see and access it.
IMPORTANT
Please be sure to back up the site and database before granting us access.
If you can't see the "wp-admin / FTP" fields, your post and site login details will be set to "PUBLIC". DO NOT publish the data unless you see the required wp-admin / FTP fields.
I may need to install a plugin called "All In One WP Migration" here to create a copy of the site that I can use to investigate the issue further.
However, I would also be very grateful if you could provide a staging site or copy of the website from your server for this purpose.
If you have any questions about creating such a staging site, you can consult your hosting provider. Please note that WPML must also be registered on this staging site at https://wpml.org/de/account/websites/.
If you are not able to provide such a copy of the website for testing, please let me know on this ticket.
The private reply form looks like this: hidden link

Please note that we are obliged to request this information individually on each ticket. We are not allowed to access any credentials that were not specifically submitted on this ticket in the private response form.
You can only see a duplicate option if the form has not yet been translated. This means you would need to delete the current existing translation, duplicate the original form into a second language, and then click "Translate independently" on the backend.
You will not need to translate the form inside the form editor. Instead, you can adjust the already integrated translations for this form at WPML > String Translation.
I'm now trying to implement your recommendation and have created a new application form. However, before I can create duplicates, WPML's new automatic translation has already generated translations.
Previously, I was able to control this manually - how can I now exclude application forms from automatic translation in WPML?
Thanks and best regards,
Eric
PS: after changing to the German translation to check the situation, the form was empty as expected, but I got also a fatal error message from wordpress, in a private message I could send it, if you want, but if the duplication is possible, such an error may be not shwon anymore

I can sadly not longer log in to your site.
To avoid automatic translation change the translation method for the form to "WordPress Editor".
Now try to manually create the translation.
If this will not work out as expected I can offer a WPML test site on which you can replicate the issue and I will escalate it to our compatilbity team.
Hi,
If I create a new form, the translation process starts immediatley, I can only switch to the WordPress Editor after this, and this is too late. Is there another way? Yes, we can try to establish this in a sandbox.
Thanks, kind regards

Sadly, I can no longer log into your website.
If the forms are automatically translatable, they must be registered at WPML > Settings > Post Type translation. Setting their post type to "Not translatable" should solve this issue and you should still be able to create different forms per language and use their unique shortcodes.
If you need further assistance, let's recreate the issue on the following test site and I will have a look into this.
Hi,
I set up WP Job Manager with the applications. Before I make any mistakes, could you please create or edit an application form that works in all languages?
If I need to make any changes to the sandbox, please let me know.

Translating the forms seems not to be the solution here, as even when I try to translate the form manually the translation will not show up.
For now, you can translate the strings that are displayed on the form with WPML > String Translation.
Set the forms in WPML > Settings > Post Type Translation to "Not translatable". Delete all translations of forms from Job Applications > Application Forms.
Now, scan your plugins for new strings at WPML > Theme & Plugin Localization.
Search for the default forms strings at WPML > String Translation and translate them.
You will run into a few exceptions, which will not work out as expected.
Like:
- Placeholder of the Message field
- Upload description
I will take a closer look into the code of the plugin today to see if I can find a solution.
