Problem: The client was unable to translate the content of ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) fields and the page content itself in a custom WordPress site using WPML. The translation interface did not allow changes to the content for different languages, although the ACF field labels were detected correctly. Solution: 1. We recommended ensuring that ACFs are set as translatable by comparing the site's configuration with the guide on translating sites built with ACF. 2. It was important to set the ACF Groups post type as 'Not Translate' in WPML -> Settings -> Post Type Translation. 3. We advised increasing the WordPress memory limit to at least 128MB, suggesting adding the following code in wp-config.php:
4. Installation of the String Translation plugin was recommended to manage string translations effectively. 5. We updated the configuration to set ACF fields as translatable, which resolved the issue of fields not appearing in the translation interface.
