raviS-7	I am having one ACF Text field which is set with "Translate" as I can see in "Custom Fields Translation" option in WPML settings. If there is already value in that field and I replace or update value with some other value, then after translation, it's perfect for other languages. But if I am replace existing text value with empty string value then after translation, it's not update for other languages.

Long Nguyen Supporter Languages: English (English ) Timezone: Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh (GMT+07:00)	Hi Ravi, Thank you for contacting WPML support, I’m happy to help you with this issue. As discussed in the chat session, it could be a feature request and I will share your feedback with the development team to consider supporting the feature to sync the empty ACF field value to the translation post. I will update you here when I have any information. Meanwhile, you can add an empty space to the field value to sync it to the translation post. Thanks for your patience.
