Instances / Components

Hi all! The agency that i'm working for has the following issue: A while ago, Webflow implemented an update that made editing content of components work a bit differently. Before, each element in a component was easily editable (textual, visibility, linking, ...) without having to link all properties of each element first in the component itself. But ever since the update the non-linked properties of elements inside of each component are no longer editable by the client. For a project we've been working on for the past few months we have built a component library for different countries, which means this would require a lot of manual labor to link every property of every element inside of a component for every project in all of the countries. I was wondering and hoping if any of you would know a workaround for this? Thanks in advance!
