Grid Builder - Facets using ACF fields labels are not translated in frontend

Overview of the issue

When using Grid Builder with WPML and Advanced Custom Fields (ACF), there’s a problem with Facets using custom fields. Even though the ACF field labels are translated in the backend, they are not reflected in the frontend.

Workaround

Please, make sure of having a full backup of your site before proceeding.

For Select fields

• Open your theme’s functions.php file.
• Add the following code:

  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22

  // WPML Workaround for wpmlsupp-11647 function wpml_wpmlsupp11647_translate_facet_choices( $choices, $facet ) {       if ( class_exists('Sitepress') ) {         foreach ($choices as &$choice) {             $string = $choice->facet_name;             $textdomain = 'facets';             $string_name = 'Facet: '.substr($string, 0, 20);                       if ( apply_filters('wpml_default_language', NULL ) == apply_filters( 'wpml_current_language', NULL )) {                 do_action( 'wpml_register_single_string', $textdomain, $string_name, $string );             }               // Apply the translation to the string             $choice->facet_name = apply_filters('wpml_translate_single_string', $string , $textdomain, $string_name);         }     }       return $choices;   }   add_filter( 'wp_grid_builder/facet/choices', 'wpml_wpmlsupp11647_translate_facet_choices', 10, 2 );

• Visit the page with the facets in the original language to register the strings.
• Go to WPML > String Translation page and translate the strings.
