Problem: You have enabled automatic translation, but you are noticing missing texts and images on the translated sites. Solution: Firstly, the issue with missing labels arises because they are set to 'Don't translate', which means they do not appear in the Translation Editor. To resolve this, you need to: 1. Change the translation preference of these fields to 'Translate' in ACF → Field Groups (Expert Mode). This adjustment will ensure that the labels appear in the Translation Editor and are translated accordingly.
Regarding the missing links, if they are coming from repeater fields and contain anchors, WPML cannot automatically adjust them. You should: 1. Make those fields translatable. 2. Manually adjust the links in the Translation Editor.
Applying these settings to the relevant custom fields will also affect any new content going forward.

Problem:
In my ACF field group, I am using the mode "Same fields across languages" or "Different fields across languages" which preset the translation preferences for all fields.
However, I'd like to have different defaults for the translation preferences.
If you're experiencing a fatal error with a message about 'Maximum call stack size' and suspect it might be due to infinite recursion in the WPML plugin, particularly when using Advanced Custom Fields (ACF).
Problem: You are trying to use automatic translation for all your pages, but it did not work for two specific pages. Solution: The issue is that these pages are set to use the "WordPress Editor" as the translation method, which prevents the translation jobs from being completed. 1. Open the original pages in the WordPress Editor. 2. Ensure that the translation method is set to "WPML Translation Editor" instead of "WordPress Editor". 3. If the page has too much data and exceeds the 1MB limit of the Advanced Translation Editor, consider translating the page using the WordPress Editor or reducing the amount of original content.

Problem: The client needed to recover all WPML settings after encountering an issue. Solution: We recommended the following steps: 1. Navigate to the troubleshooting tools and select the option
Reset WPML's language tables and reinstall it
. This option appears only when WPML detects an issue with your languages. 2. After running this operation, check if both languages are marked as "Deactivated" in
WPML > Languages
. 3. Use the Add/remove languages option to re-add your languages.
