leoG-13	Hi, I believe I got the same issue as the following links, but the fix doesn't seem to work for me. I've disabled "I prefer bigger segments" inside ATE, but the options in the select still all go into 1 long line. See attached image https://wpml.org/forums/topic/contact-form-7-dropdown-select-field-not-working/ https://wpml.org/errata/contact-form-7-translations-remove-select-fields-formatting/ After changing the option "I prefer bigger segments" I've tried removing the translation for the form and adding it again, tried adding translation to a different form, but nothing works. I'm using WPML Multilingual CMS version 4.8.6, WPML Multilingual for CF7 version 1.3.3, Contact Form 7 version 6.1.5.

Itamar WPML Supporter since 02/2016 Languages: Hebrew (עברית ) Timezone: Asia/Jerusalem (GMT+03:00)	Hi, I tried to replicate this issue on a fresh WP test site with WPML and CF7, but was unable to do so. Maybe it is something specific to your form's code or a problem in the translation process you took. You can see my translated form here: hidden link. The drop-down field to select a country is OK. But I might also be missing a step you did that I'm not aware of. Could you please use the same code from your contact form on the test site and see if you can replicate the problem? You can access my test site with this link: hidden link If the problem also occurs on the test site, please provide the exact steps to reproduce it. If you can, please send me a video of what you are doing. You can use the free online screencast service Komodo - hidden link. This should help me see if you do anything wrong. Regards, Itamar.

Hstd Reklambyrå	Hi, I've tried replicating the issue on your test site, but are unable to do so. I also compared the settings to see if there is anything obviously different, but can't see what that would be. As you said, it could be some conflict with other code. It's hard to tell since there are no errors. I will troubleshoot it a bit more once the website is on a live URL. Would you be able to take a look at it if I gave you access to the website? Many thanks.
