alexH-33	Background of the issue: I am using WPML with Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) to manage multilingual content on my website hidden link. Previously, I utilized the 'expert' mode to manage ACF field groups, allowing me to specify whether a field should be copied or translated. However, the current recommendation is to use 'same fields across languages' or 'different fields across languages'. Symptoms: In the advanced editor, both the content and the ACF field group titles, such as button text 'Add row', are displayed for translation. This is unnecessary as these admin language fields do not need to be updated on a per-page basis, leading to confusion for translators. Questions: How can we hide the ACF labels from the advanced translator in WPML?
