WPML

Overview of the Issue

There is an issue that prevents a field group you create using the ACF plugin to display on the post editing screen.

This happens when you set the display rule to display when post is {exact post title} under the secondary language (selected via the top Admin Bar language switcher).

The field group won’t show on the post editing screen of the default language nor any secondary languages.

Workaround

This issue is fixed. Updating to the latest version solves it on your site, so you only need this workaround if you can’t update yet.

  1. Go to the field group editing screen.
  2. Switch to the default language using the top Admin Bar language switcher.
  3. Set the display location to Show this field group if → Post is equal to {Default post type title}
