Background of the issue:
I am trying to translate contact forms on my site hidden link using WPML. The forms are not being translated correctly, and they are adding code that affects the design and functionality. Specifically, it adds /wpmlcf7-4 in front of certain fields, which I have manually deleted, but it still insists on needing it in areas that don't show up on the translation screen.

Symptoms:
Contact forms are not being translated correctly, and they are adding code that messes up the design and functionality.

Questions:
Why is WPML adding /wpmlcf7-4 in front of certain fields in my contact forms?
How can I remove the unwanted code from areas that don't show up on the translation screen?
