Problem: You are using an ACF URL field with the WPML plugin, and the URL field with the copy setting does not receive the correct link, displaying the same link in both languages.
Solution: First, we need to adjust the setting for the "txt_link" field within the repeating sub-fields group from "Copy" to "Translate". After changing this setting, make a minor edit to the home page (such as adding a few characters to a text label) and save the changes to trigger an update in the translation. Next, update the translation in the Advanced Translation Editor (ATE) and manually correct the link for the translated version of the product.
If you encounter issues with internal links not automatically adjusting to their corresponding translated links, ensure that the target content has been translated and published. For existing content where the incorrect setting was used, you can either update the links manually as described or resend the content for automatic translation. Utilizing the translation memory feature can help minimize the costs of retranslation.

Problem: You are trying to use an ACF URL field with the WPML plugin on your site and want the URL field to have a copy setting that displays the same link in both languages. However, the URL field with the copy setting does not receive the correct link and displays the same link in both languages. Solution: This behavior is expected when using the Copy setting, as it ensures the same URL is applied 1:1 across all languages. If you need a different URL for each language, we recommend setting the field to Translate instead.

Problem: You are trying to display a translated URL for an ACF link on your website using WPML, but the URL ACF link is not showing its translation on the front end. Solution: First, ensure that the content linked by the ACF link is fully translated and published. Next, check the translation preference for your ACF Field Group. Additionally, if you are in "Export" mode, make sure that the correct settings are applied to all fields. You can find a guide on setting translation preferences for ACF and WPML here: Recommended Custom Fields Translation Preferences for ACF and WPML. Also, verify that the post type "ACF Field Groups" is set to "Not translate" in WPML's post type translation settings.
