Background of the issue:
I'm using the widget Fancy Heading by Ultimate Addons for Elementor Pro and the Classic Translation Editor (CTE). The text in the original language on page hidden link has 3 lines. In the translation, the 3 lines are converted into visible tags. The same problem applies to radio buttons and select fields in Elementor Forms.

Symptoms:
In the translation, the 3 lines are converted into visible tags.

Questions:
Why are new lines in the Fancy Heading widget being converted into tags in the translation?
How can I prevent tags from appearing in radio buttons and select fields in Elementor Forms?

Hi,
I replicated the issue on the test server. As you can see the problem is in the 3 fields of the form (checkbox, radio, select) and in the fancy text.
Thank you for your support.

Thank you for replicating the issue. I tried customising the XML, but it didn’t resolve the problem. It works correctly only when using WPML’s Advanced Translation Editor or the default WordPress editor.

1. For the form fields issue, it has already been escalated to our developers, and a workaround is provided here: https://wpml.org/errata/elementor-form-widget-select-field-breaks-when-translated-with-cte/

2. For the Fancy Heading issue with Ultimate Addons, could you please take a backup of your site and update the Elementor Pro and Ultimate Addons for Elementor Pro plugin to the latest version to see if this resolves the issue?

Additionally, please update the plugins on the sandbox site too, as we can only escalate issues to our compatibility team when all plugins are up to date.

Kindly let me know the results,
Thank you for your cooperation and patience
