Ton	So, I was indeed talking about an internal link. So internal links DO get adjusted. So the questions is does it do this for all ACF fields normally, excluding the Link field?

Andreas W. Supporter Languages: English (English ) Spanish (Español ) German (Deutsch ) Timezone: America/Lima (GMT-05:00)	WPML should automatically ajust the link field. This only might be the exception if a internal link would show up inside the WPML Translation Editor, which could be the case for some page builders or if a link field is set to "Translate". This is why the ACF link field is by default set to "Copy" on our configuration. The internal linking can only work if the content that you are linking to is already translated and published. Further, you can fix internal links by going to WPML > Settings > Translate Link Targets > Scan now and adjust links.

Ton	Yeah so, if you look back at the original problem. 1 of the links in the Link field was an INTERNAL link, that it DOES NOT get adjusted in the translations. That's what the problem IS.

Please complete the translations to 100%. The product category archive links are available for translation. See screesnhot.

Ton	Sorry Andreas, But i don't think you really understand the problem. We had it set to AUTOTRANSLATE (Via DEEPL). You state that it should have adjusted automaticly since some of them were internal URL's. But this did not work. We didn't want to translate the URL's manually.
