Overview of the issue

Translations that contain a repeater field are automatically marked as Need update, even though you didn’t edit any text value in the post.

You may see this happen if you have already translated a post with a repeater field and have the and you shuffle the repeater in one of the translations (with the Synchronize repeater sub-fields positions in post translations checkbox selected).

Workaround

After shuffling the repeater fields and before clicking the button to save the post, please select the Don’t update translation checkbox in the Minor edit section of the Language meta box.

Please note: this workaround only works when using the Classic Editor plugin, as the Minor edit checkbox does not appear in the Block Editor.
