We are now seeing new field group fields as available for translation in the advanced translation editor.

We have tried the following to remove them from the advanced translation editor:

a. Set Field Groups as not translatable in WPML Post type settings (then resaving the page with a minor change):

b. Setting the Custom field to either Do Not Translate or Copy (then resaving the page with a minor change:)

With any configuration we still find the fields appear in the advanced translation editor.

We would like ACF Field Groups to not appear in the advanced translation editor.

Hi there.

From what I can see, there’s already an open ticket for this issue here:

https://wpml.org/forums/topic/acf-fields-showing-in-translation-management

This is considered a duplicate ticket.

Please do not open more tickets for the same issue as this will only load the ticket queue and will move your initial tickets lower in the queue priority.

Please wait for a response in the initially-created ticket.

Can you also please mark this current ticket as resolved?

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Sorry - attached wrong image.

This ticket relates to the advanced translation manager not the tranlsation management section - therefore should not be considered a duplicate ticket.

I have attached relevant snip.

Thanks,

Hi there and thank you for the clarification.

Yes, that is expected after the latest update.

Those labels should be translated or copied only the first time, save the translation, and then you should not see them any longer.

Please let me know how that goes and if you need any help!

What about the ACF Field Groups showing in translation editor? We would like those removed - is this possible or should they just be ignored?

Now we are experiencing some pages showing the field group for translation and some not. How do we remove these fields from the advanced translation editor? We do not need them translated.

Hi there.

In regards to this:

Those can be ignored.

In regards to the question about why that other ticket (https://wpml.org/forums/topic/acf-fields-showing-in-translation-management/) was closed, my colleague replied to you and if there is no response for a good amount of days (I think it is 6 or 7 days), the ticket gets closed automatically. So he asked you here (https://wpml.org/forums/topic/acf-fields-showing-in-translation-management/#post-13367955) to please update the plugin to the latest version but he never heard back from you on that matter.

In regards to this:

Now we are experiencing some pages showing the field group for translation and some not

Those can be copied for the first time. They are showing due to our latest update.

I hope that this brings a bit more clarification.

Mihai
