Hi, I originally built/setup WPML so that English was the default language and French the secondary language. My client has asked me to change this so French is the default language however now when we go into the WP admin dashboard we can't access any ACF fields in either language. I have to refresh the editing screen several times before they show up in English which surely can't be correct? Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jams |

Hi James, Welcome to the WPML support forum. I will do my best to help you to resolve these issues. This may be happening because of the translation settings of the *Home Content French* field Group. The fields are set as *Don't translate* now and the Homepage is a translation of English now. Please choose *Translate* option for those two ACF fields. Then check you are getting the expected result or not. If you are still having the issues, please tries the following troubleshooting steps after a site backup and make sure the issue is existing or not. 1) Go to WPML>>Support page 2) Click on Troubleshooting link (blue link in the middle of the page) 3) In Troubleshooting page, please click on the following options of the *Clean up* section. Wait for confirmation of processing after each one. - Clear the cache in WPML -- Bigul |

Hi Bigul, Thanks for the reply, the issue is with the ACF fields for the "Property" post types (not pages). I've followed the steps in your email below but unfortunately the problem is still there. I've just had a look in the "Properties" section and I can't get the ACF fields to show up at all for either language now even after refreshing a few times? The site uses a CDN, I'm not sure if that could be causing this issue? Kind Regards, James |

Hi James, Thank you for the updates. This may be happening because of the Property Custom Fields Groups are not translated to French. Please try the following steps after a backup and let me know your feedback. 1) Set *Copy* as the translation preference for *property_gallery* field Please check the attached images for more details. -- Bigul |

Hi, Unfortunately I'm still having problems with this, what my client would like is that all the ACF fields only show up for the French language apart from the my default title, default content area and a ACF field for summary. I've changed over all the ACF fields so that they're now associated with the French language (not English like they were originally) and set them to copy the enter values across (see screenshot) however when I go to edit a property in French nothing shows up? Kind Regards, James |

Hi James, Thank you for the updates. Please create a new Property Post and check the issue is existing or not. Also please share with me the WordPress debug.log (not WPML debug information) for tracking the issue. Please check this page for instructions https://wpml.org/documentation/support/debugging-wpml/ To enable it, open your wp-config.php file and look for define(‘WP_DEBUG’, false);. Change it to: // Enable WP_DEBUG mode define( 'WP_DEBUG', true ); // Enable Debug logging to the /wp-content/debug.log file define( 'WP_DEBUG_LOG', true ); // Disable display of errors and warnings define( 'WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY', false ); @ini_set( 'display_errors', 0 ); // Use dev versions of core JS and CSS files (only needed if you are modifying these core files) define( 'SCRIPT_DEBUG', true ); In this case, the errors will be saved to a debug.log log file inside the */wp-content/* directory. Please do the steps to reproduce the bug and check you are getting any errors or warning related to WPML in the log file. If you can paste your debug.log to http://pastebin.com/index.php and provide me that link it would be great! (This is the cleanest way because sometimes the logs are long and create a complete mess of discussion). -- Bigul |
