Hi.

Thank you for the screenshot.

I logged in and as I also see in the screenshot, it seems that the form is still in the process of translation and it is waiting for a translator.

Can you please confirm that the form has been translated?

Also, can you please give me access below to the WordPress user that was used for the translation?

I am enabling the private fields below.

I will be waiting for your response.

Just a note that I won't be working on the weekend so I will be able to get back to you at the beginning of next week.

Kind regards,
Mihai

Hi and thank you for the credentials.

I have checked and it seems that now the form is translated in Chinese (hidden link) but not in the other 2 languages.

You can go here (hidden link) > make sure the tab "translation jobs" is selected at the top-right of the screen and search for "form" and you will see the screenshot I'm attaching.

Do you know if the form has been translated in the other 2 languages?

Please let me know.

Kind regards,
Mihai

Thank you for the information.

That's really weird. I will spend more time on this and I will get back to you as soon as I have more feedback.

I will leave the ticket assigned to myself for the moment.

Hi.

It seems that you were using the CTE (WPML Classic Translation Editor) for translating the forms instead of the one we recommend in the documentation: ATE (Advanced Translation Editor).

I changed that and for me, the form works properly for all languages now.

Can you please check and see if it's solved for you, too?

Please let me know if this solved your issue or if you still need help.

I will be waiting for your response.

Kind regards,
Mihai
