Background of the issue:
I'm trying to translate the options of a Radio Selector Field inside an Elementor Form on my site hidden link. In the Elementor form builder, each option is set on a separate line.
Symptoms:
When trying to translate, it picks up all the box content as a unique text block, meaning that when translated it wraps all 3 options in one, which is not the expected output.
Questions:
How can I translate individual options of a Radio Selector Field in an Elementor Form using WPML?
2. Make sure you are using the latest version of theme and plugins on your site.
3. Try the below procedure:
3.1. Open the default language page in Edit mode in which you are facing this issue.
3.2. Make a small change, for example, add a space or + sign in your page/post title.
3.3. Update the page by pressing the “Update” button.
3.4. Now, please remove that small change that did in step #3.2.
3.5. Update the page again.
3.6. Now, open the translated page in the WPML Translation Editor, and make sure the translation is 100% complete. Finally, press the “Complete Translation” button and check if this resolves the issue.
4. Please delete all sorts of caches on your site/server cache if any / plugin cache / CDN cache (if any), clear browser cache, and then see if it resolves the issue afterward.
I don't think you are understanding the issue, the issue is that the field is not of the same type aparently, it is pickit as a single line field, but in elementor this is a multiline element that fort each line it picks up a radio option
hidden link
Translating is not working properly because it takes the element as a single line item string
If the issue still persists, please provide temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP Login info) to your site (preferably staging site), so that I can look into your setup and debug the issue.
Your next answer will be private, meaning only you and I can access it.

✙ I would additionally need your permission to deactivate and reactivate Plugins and the Theme and to change configurations on the site. This is also a reason the backup is essential.
