Hello

I have a problem translating the choices that I load with an ACF field.
How can I ensure that these choices are translated into English?

Because now they are selected in the backend in the Dutch language. But if I load them via an ACF field, they are also shown in Dutch on the English version of the website.

I contacted ACF about this. and they told me in needed to talk to you guys.
The website is under construction. i made and account

You can find the field with the choices in het menu on the right

"ACF" -> "Aanbod" -> "Aanbod algemeen" -> ""Oplevering" select field

You can specify a number of options in this field. But these choices are the same in Dutch and English. Where can I translate this. in WPML I only find the labels and not the choices

You can find the output form these fields on the following page in the tab "Kenmerken"

Ik realy hope you can help me.

thanks in advance

Hello Dennis,

thanks for contacting us.

Please do not share sensitive data if private fields are not enabled, this is a public forum.

As for choices, there is not an out of-box way, since the ACF field should be set as label: value as shown in their docs, then you can translate labels for choices and echo them translated in frontend.

That would be recommended and suggested way.

Hope this helps. Let us know if any further questions.

Regards,
Drazen
