This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The client was experiencing issues with ACF fields not being translated in their products, displayed in white boxes within an Elementor Loop Grid. In the English version, these fields appeared as empty spaces. Additionally, the links within these fields did not translate correctly and targeted the original language URLs instead of the translated ones.
Solution:
We advised the client to set the 'acf_field_group' CPT to 'Not translated' in WPML > Settings > Post Types Translation, as having it set to 'translated' is not recommended. This change required re-translating the products where the ACF fields were missing.
For the links in the Elementor template, we identified a bug where the 'URL' field set to 'copy' by default was not being automatically converted.
As a temporary workaround, we suggested switching the field group to the 'Expert' mode and setting the 'URL' field translation preference to 'Translate'.
After updating the original post, the 'URL' field will appear in the translation job, allowing to manually convert the URL.
