Issue

  • Steps to reproduce:
    1. Start Liferay with Commerce installed.
    2. Go to Content > Forms > Element Sets
    3. Add a new element set
    4. Add a text field to the element set
    5. Add any translation to the element set and save.
    6. Go back to form and add any new form
    7. Add the element and save
    8. Now, add any translation to the form
    9. In the Properties tab of the Text field, add a Predefined value and Save (if you add it to the default language, it should automatically be saved to the translated field too)
    10. Preview the form.
    11. Predefined value is not showing for translation added.

    Expected Result: The predefined value is displayed on the editor and on the side bar when the non-default language is chosen, going against the rules of forms for fields based on element sets
    Actual Result: The value shouldn't be displayed on the editor and on the side bar when the non-default language is selected.
