This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
If you're experiencing issues with an ACF dynamic image field not working in a WordPress pattern in French, it might be due to compatibility issues.
Solution:
We recommend following these steps:
1. Edit your pattern in the original language.
2. Switch to the WP editor for the translation. This can be done by opening the translation in the WP editor.
3. Reassign the dynamic ACF field and save your changes.

Please note that this solution might be outdated or not applicable to your specific case. We highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the issue persists, please open a new support ticket.

Hi Paolo,

Yes, as agreed previously, I removed the staging site, and we worked on the sandbox.

Could you tell me how to do it using the sandbox? And then I replicate it on the live website?

Is there a way to make it work? Or should I try to use blocks other than Kadence?
When will Kadence be fully compatible?

Please use it with this url: hidden link , change the post id with the id of your site pattern that you can take it for the url.

I am sorry, but I don't understand what you are saying. Could you please be more precise?

From what I understand, I need to manually translate the pattern, but I do not have WPML on the pattern's right bar.

I assume that is just a setting to activate. How to do?

On your site please go to this url: /wp-admin/post.php?post=84&action=edit and change the post id (84) to the post id of your pattern.

That way you can switch to the WP editor for the translation as you can see on this screenshot hidden link

I have recorded a video:
