[Resolved] ACF Taxomony Filed's pictures not showing in translated category
This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem: The client is experiencing an issue where images in ACF image fields are not appearing in the translated categories of their WordPress site, despite working in the original language. Solution: 1. Navigate to Posts → Categories in the WordPress dashboard. 2. Change the language in the top admin bar to the target translation language. 3. Select the translated category and click Edit. 4. In the ACF fields section, if the image field is empty, add or reselect the same image as in the original category. 5. Click Update on the category. Repeat these steps for each category with missing images in translations. After updating, verify by checking the translated category page on the front end to ensure the image appears. If using Elementor templates, ensure the template is set to display the ACF field for the current language.

Thanks for your reply. Please backup and update all WPML plugins in WP > Plugins > Add New > Commercial Tab.
I will require temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to a test site where the problem has been replicated, if possible. This will enable me to provide better assistance and determine if any configurations need to be modified.
Please note that it is important to have a backup for security purposes and to prevent any potential data loss. You can use the UpdraftPlus plugin (https://wordpress.org/plugins/updraftplus/) to fulfill your backup requirements.

✙ To resolve the issue, I may need your consent to deactivate and reactivate plugins and the theme, as well as make configuration changes on the site if necessary. This emphasizes the significance of having a backup.
Thanks for your reply. Could you please share access to the production site so I can check it directly? If you agree, please create a full backup first and then share your credentials with me here using the private reply option.
Thanks for your reply. I edited this Element hidden link , turned the dynamic option off and on as shown in the attached screenshot and the issue is fixed. Looks like some sort of glitch here. You can activate the cache plugins when everything looks fine for you.
