jeromeM-25	Good morning, My website is: jeromemarien.fr In WP the pages and the posts are translated in English and spanish: English: jeromemarien.com Spanish: jeromemarien.es Option: DO NOT DISPLAY LANGUAGES I have 2 custom post types: . My proprietes (my properties) exemple: hidden link . My acteur du marché immobilier ( actors of real estate market) Exemple: hidden link I tried 3 times to translate automatically these posts and I couldn't do it. Also I updated the slug translation in the WP : properties: /vente-immobilier/ > English: /real-estate-sales/ But this change doesn't show on front. What setting shall I change in WPML to translate automatically all custome posts inclusing custom fields. I have restored a clean website release, Thank you in advance for your hep!! Best regards Jérôme

Let's go over 1 thing at a time to keep things clear, and if needed, and if any other issues we will open a new ticket for it. For your CPTs and ACF, please check next: - Make sure they are set as translatable https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/translating-custom-posts/ - Make sure to use the ACFML addon and setup our custom fields translation correctly via Expert mode or select the core mode for each group. Then depending on these settings the content of your field will be copied or translated. https://wpml.org/documentation/related-projects/translate-sites-built-with-acf/ Let me know how it goes. Regards, Drazen
