How do I prevent WPML from translating Anchor links?
I NEVER want to translate the above "fusion_builder_container: menu_anchor"

Hi there,

I am consulting regarding a solution to disable translation of menu_anchor attribute of shortcodes with our second tier team. I will send you an update here as soon as I have a news.

Hi there,

Can you please follow the following steps then create a new page to test the anchor link translation, translate it and see if it fixes the issue?

- Backup the site completely to prevent any issues.

- Go to WPML -> Settings -> Custom XML Configuration

- Insert the following XML config in the settings and save it.

<wpml-config>
	<shortcodes>
		<shortcode>
		<tag>fusion_builder_container</tag>
			<attributes>
			<attribute>video_mp4</attribute>
			<attribute>video_url</attribute>
			</attributes>
		</shortcode>
	</shortcodes>
</wpml-config>

Regards,
Subash
