Background of the issue:
I got on my site acfml, and a flexible content field on cpt "Objekte". In language SK: fields: rental_space (numeric;copy), Etage (text;copy once), tenant_name(text;copy), condition(select;copy). In language DE: fields: rental_space (numeric;copy), Etage (text;copy once), tenant_name(text;copy), condition(select;copy). So if I create a new "objekt" in SK, that's fine. Then, I want to translate it to DE, everything good, stuff will be copied after click on save.

Symptoms:
If the objekt is a draft everything is good. But when I click on publish, these fields get empty. If I change back to draft, values reappear.

Questions:
What can I do to prevent the field values from disappearing when I publish the objekt?
Where is the problem causing the field values to disappear upon publishing?

Hey there,

I checked different settings and wasn't able to get to the desired results. I'm getting a second opinion with my colleagues and will get back to you as soon as I hear from them.

Thank you for your patience.

Hey there,

Thank you for waiting. I checked your issue further and noticed that the issue only happens with your specific installation. By running tests on testing environments, the issue did not happen.

To escalate your issue to our development team, I need a copy of your website. Unfortunately, when creating the copy it didn't work as expected. I tried it with different plugins and approaches.

Can you please create a staging version for me? You can use the WP Staging Plugin:
