Background of the issue:
I am trying to address an issue that was previously reported and fixed in 2023. The issue involves a repeater field with a minimum set to 1, where its value gets copied in translations. On saving in the WordPress editor, an error message is shown: "Telefonnummer value is required". A workaround is to set the minimum to 0. More details can be found here: https://wpml.org/forums/topic/acf-repeater-translation-minimum-rows-reached-1-rows/

Symptoms:
Validation fails for copied repeater fields, and the error message "Telefonnummer value is required" is displayed.

Questions:
Why does the validation fail for copied repeater fields?
Is there a permanent fix for the repeater field validation issue?

Hello,

thanks for contacting us.

1) I have tried to reproduce the issue, as per the last report, but seems the issue is not happening or requires additional settings, so the status is correct the issue was correct and this looks like new instance.

Please check next test website, try to reproduce the issue and share the steps you did with me: hidden link

In that case, I can escalate to our devs for a permanent fix.

2) Also did you try old workaround fix / code, does that helps?

Regards,
Drazen

I configured all ACF fields but could not reproduce the issue. I saw that on our system some ACF fields were not synchronized. This could be the root cause.
