Background of the issue:
I have created a Social Media Icons container using Elementor on my site hidden link. I want different languages to show different social media icons on a specific page without using the 'Translate independently' option, as only this area shouldn't be synchronized. I tried using Elementor Shortcode to create different language versions, but the format seems to break in the translated version on the page.

Symptoms:
The format of the Elementor Shortcode breaks in the translated version of the page.

Questions:
Are there any ways to achieve different social media icons for different languages without breaking the format?

While one of my teammates is handling your ticket, I will provide you with some information.

Unfortunately, it is not possible to achieve your desired outcome using the WPML Advanced Translation Editor. However, if you disable the Advanced Translation Editor, you can achieve it.

Please refer to the following article for more details:
