sylvieH-3	Hi, I installed a plugin to have more Gutenberg blocks (https://wordpress.org/plugins/stackable-ultimate-gutenberg-blocks/). I use only the "popup video" block from this plugin. When I put the block on a page, I can choose a video to display (when the play button is clicked). But I want it to show another video (change the src value of the video tag only) when I'm on a translated page. When I use this snippet in my WPML config, I see the video source field in the translation editor and can translate it fine. But this doesn't seem to impact the front-end: on both pages (the original and the translated one) the same video source is used. <wpml-config> <gutenberg-blocks> <gutenberg-block type="stackable/video-popup" translate="1"> <key name="videoLink"> </key> <key name="data-video" /> </gutenberg-block> </gutenberg-blocks> </wpml-config> What could be the issue here? Is there any way to "force" the URL change so it works? Thanks in advance for your help!
