lorenzoB-3	Background of the issue: I am using several custom Gutenberg blocks built with ACF on my website. I want to maintain the same content across different languages when using WPML. Specifically, I want to upload content like image galleries in one language and have it automatically synchronized across all other languages. I have set the ACF field settings to 'copy' for images. Symptoms: The behavior of synchronizing image galleries across languages does not work as expected despite setting ACF field settings to 'copy'. Questions: Is there a way to configure WPML and ACF so that content like image galleries can remain consistent across translations without requiring separate manual adjustments in every language?
