This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client is using WPML with ACF Pro for their websites. They encountered an issue where adding a new 'module' in a group of ACF fields with flexible content reflects on the translated version of the page, maintaining the same layout structure but causing content mismatch. The content keeps its original key order, but the addition of a new layout disrupts the matching of original content.
Solution:
We suggested the client recreate the issue in a clean testing environment that we set up, which only includes WPML and ACF. This step is crucial to determine if the problem is related to WPML or other factors such as server settings or conflicts with other plugins or themes. If the issue does not replicate in the testing environment, it likely points to external factors on the client's original site. We provided the client with an automatic login URL to access the testing environment. If the problem persists, or if this solution becomes irrelevant due to updates or different configurations, we recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. Additionally, if further assistance is needed, please open a new support ticket or contact us through the WPML support forum.
