Problem: The client was facing issues with translating custom post types using Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) in their multilingual website.
Solution: We recommended installing and activating the Advanced Custom Fields Multilingual (ACFML) plugin to add multilingual functionality to ACF. After installation, the client needed to adjust the field group's settings as outlined in the ACFML guide. Then, the client should open the product in the default language, make a minor edit, save the changes, and update the translation. This process ensures that all fields are correctly translated and displayed.

3) Fields I have never wanted to translate (and its set in translations settings) appeared in translation editor and we got less than 20% completed (before update it was 100%)
It causes problem when we do changes on product and on translation it does not appear because translation seems to not be finished...
What happens to the product attributes when you complete a product translation?
Solution:
The attributes will be synced and you can always go to WooCommerce → WooCommerce Multilingual & Multicurrency → Attributes and sync the attributes and the product variations.
