rannooo	Background of the issue: I am trying to translate page content that uses ACF, but internal links are not automatically translated. Instead, I have to manually translate them. I have reported this issue before https://wpml.org/forums/topic/internal-links-are-not-auto-translated-when-using-acf-link-field-inside-flexible-content/ but now that I have tried the latest versions of ACF multilingual and WPML updates, the issue still persists. Symptoms: Internal links are not auto-translated when using ACF Link field inside Flexible content. Questions: Why are internal links not automatically translated when using ACF Link field inside Flexible content? How can I ensure that internal links are auto-translated?

rannooo	Hello! I was given the sandbox website to reproduce the issue but I am unable to because it requires ACF Pro in order to use Flexible Content field type where the issue happens.
