Solution: When visiting the website we could not longer confirm the issue. If you run into a similar problem, we suggest visiting the Translating Page Slugs documentation for guidance on ensuring links point to the correct language versions.

Problem: You are developing a site using WPML's auto-translate feature and have encountered an issue where links within content translated using the Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) remain in the original language and point to the main language pages. Solution: To resolve this issue, you need to modify your template code to ensure that links are correctly translated and point to the appropriate language versions. Here is a step-by-step guide:
Ensure that your ACF link field is set to 'Translate' to allow for the translation of the link URL and text.
Modify your template code to use the
wpml_permalink
filter for translating the URL, and the
wpml_translate_string
filter for translating the link title. Here is an example of how you can implement this:
Adjust the return value of the link field to 'Link URL' to ensure the correct data type is used for URLs.
