We are running wordpress (sage) with custom theme heavily dependent on ACF fields. There are 2 languages present on site:
polish - hidden link
english - hidden link
Since about a week ago we'are running into a problems with ACF and WPML. I will describe problem as clear as I possibly can.
For example we have: hidden link (polish version) and hidden link (english version).
This is let's call it 'translation' but page hidden link has entirely different content. On both versions we're using ACF fields (repeaters and many more). The problem is that when someone edit english wersion the values in ACF from polish version disappear and this is not specific to one ACF field. Content disappear from different fields.
We've upgraded ACF and WPML to newest version but problems are still there.

Hello.
This is likely happening because you have set the field groups as translatable in WPML > Settings > Post Type Translation > "field-group".
- Please go to custom fields > All Fields and delete permanently all the field groups that were translated (only the translations need to be deleted, the original ones can stay)
- Now kindly head back to WPML > Settings > Post Type Translation > "field-group", and set it to "not translatable".
- Go to the page you mention in the last thread and try to modify the original language ( example: add a character to the title) and then save and update the translation.
