This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
You are trying to translate the placeholder text in Contact Form 7 using WPML, but the placeholder does not appear on the translation page as expected.
Solution:
If you're experiencing this issue, we recommend checking the syntax used for your placeholders. Contact Form 7 requires double quotes for placeholder text. For example, if your form code looks like this:
[text* yourname placeholder 'YOUR NAME*']
You should update it to:
[text* yourname placeholder "YOUR NAME*"]
After updating, retranslate the form. This should resolve the issue and the translated placeholder should appear correctly on the frontend.
Please note that this solution might be irrelevant if it's outdated or not applicable to your case. We highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the issue persists, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.
