I checked the issue and was able to fix it by editing the translated global widget using Elementor and updating it without changes. After that, the success message appeared correctly.

Hi, I didn't get it the translation (Translation Editor) because it was translated in String Translation, so updating the widget using Elementor did the trick. Best regards, |

Hi, Yes, I edited the English global widget with Elementor, added empty space to a string, and clicked the update button. |

Ok, I get it. It works, but the problem is, when you edit the translation in ATE, the messages revert back to main language. |

Hi, I see what you mean. Could you please try the following steps? 1- Edit the home page in the default language using Elementor Alternatively, you can unlink the global widget, and use the template shortcode. Best regards, |

Also, when you edit the global widget on english home, it still does not work on other pages, where the widget is: For now we will use browser messages, because of a tight deadline. Kind Regards, |

Hi Ben, I downloaded the Duplicator package and checked the issue on my local server. When using the form without the Global widget, it works correctly. Also, it works correctly when adding the Global widget to the page using a shortcode. Best regards, |
