<b>Background of the issue: </b>
I am trying to resolve an issue with apostrophes not displaying correctly on buttons on my website hidden link. I have tried the solution provided in the documentation at https://wpml.org/errata/divi-button-apostrophes-display-as-html-entities/, but it didn't work.
<b>Symptoms: </b>
Apostrophes are being displayed as ' on buttons.
- Please backup the site files and database before providing us access.
- If you have a staging site where the problem can be reproduced, it is better to share access to the staging site.
thanks I can not access wp-admin as this user is not set as admin role.
Since this was a known issue but is fixed now, did you try to re-translate the button and add correct text in WPML editor and save? It should work fine then.
I checked, and it is an issue with theme elements, since this theme is not officially compatible, so there can be issues with WPML. I tried adjusting XML to fix this, but without any luck
On why, it does not happen on staging, could be it is not same copy of production website or DB collation is different.
Anyway, I created a minimal test installation of WordPress, WPML, and all necessary WPML add-ons, and themes and replicated the issue there, so confirmed it is a bug with theme.
I will escalate this to our compatibility team to check, but note since it is not officially compatible, we might not be able to fully fix the issue.
