Yootheme: translate strings in the template

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The client was unable to update the translation for an Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) field; although it appeared correctly in the admin area, it did not reflect on the product page in Spanish.
Solution:
We identified that the string "Características y ventajas" on the product page was not an ACF field group title but was configured in the Yootheme product template. To translate this, we recommended the following steps:
1. Navigate to WPML > Settings and add the custom XML configuration code to register the theme option for translation:

<wpml-config>
  <admin-texts>
    <key name="yootheme"></key>
  </admin-texts>
</wpml-config>

2. Go to WPML > String Translation and translate the item title in the option string under the domain "admin_texts_yootheme".
We also provided a link to the documentation for further assistance: https://wpml.org/documentation/support/language-configuration-files/translate-strings-in-wp-options-table/

Long Nguyen WPML Supporter since 02/2022 Languages: English (English ) Vietnamese (Vietnamese ) Timezone: Asia/Ho_Chi_Minh (GMT+07:00)	Hi, The string "Características y ventajas" on the product page is configured in the product template: Yootheme > Template > Single Product > Accordion > Items product > Title. It's not the ACF field group title. You can follow steps below to translate the accordion item title: 1. Go to WPML > Settings > Add the custom XML configuration code below to register the theme option for translation: <wpml-config> <admin-texts> <key name="yootheme" /> </admin-texts> </wpml-config> 2. Go to WPML > String Translation > Translate the item title in the option string under the domain "admin_texts_yootheme". Refer documentation https://wpml.org/documentation/support/language-configuration-files/translate-strings-in-wp-options-table/ Looking forward to your reply. Thanks

mariiaE-2	Hello, Long Nguyen! Thanks you for your kind assistance! But this solution breaks the templates 🙂 So I made an ACF field for the accordion name, tried to changed it to dynamic in Yootheme, but I can make nothing... it's every time 503 error, do/did you have the same problem? And if not, may i kindly ask you to save this changes?..
