Tell us what you are trying to do?
Homepage with position for banner. Only the different languages have different count of banner slides (with acf)

Is there any documentation that you are following?

Is there a similar example that we can see?

What is the link to your site?

Hi there,

Thanks for contacting WPML support.

I've checked your Website and I'm able to see issues with the banner on your homepage using another language hidden link as shown in the attached screenshot.

Is this what you're trying to fix?

In the meantime, you can check the documentation here https://wpml.org/documentation/related-projects/translate-sites-built-with-acf/ that explains how to translate ACF contents.

Let me know how it goes.

Thanks!

Hi,

Yes the problem is that for the different translations are different count of banners available.
For example for the uk are 4 banners but for the Swedish 5 banners.
Only it is the homepage, so it should be connected to eachother.
Is there a solution for this to get this done?

Hi there,

Thanks for your reply.

I would need to take a closer look at your site. So I would need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed

IMPORTANT: Please, note, a backup is required for security reasons, and to avoid any data loss, you can use the https://wordpress.org/plugins/updraftplus/ plugin for these backup needs.

Your next answer will be private, which means only you and I have access to it.

✙ I would need your permission to de-activate and re-activate Plugins and the Theme and to change configurations on the site if needed. This is also a reason the backup is critical.

Thanks!

Hi there,

Thanks for your reply.

I've checked your home page and I can see that you've turned "off" the "Advanced Translation Editor" and the ACF sliders are not configured correctly on your translated pages.

Check out this link for the French Language hidden link and you'll see that there is a missing image as shown in the attached screenshot.

Are you saying that you wish to have the same slider on all languages and only translate the contents without needing to edit every language manually?

Thanks!

Yes everything we saved one translation, the images and content from the other translation are removed.

The case we want is that for example we have 4 slides on the UK site and 5 slides on the French one.

UK translation banners
Banner 1: A
Banner 2: B
Banner 3: C
Banner 4: D

French banners:
Banner 1: D
Banner 2: B
Banner 3: A
Banner 4: E
Banner 5: F

Hi there,

Thanks for your reply.

If you wish to display a different image in a different language, you need to select "Translate" for the "Slider" custom field here hidden link as shown in the attached screenshot.

Once you've done that, try using another image in another language and see if it works.

Thanks!
