Problem: If you're experiencing issues where repeater fields are not displayed when filled in a translated language on your site, this could be due to the setup of your translation configuration. Specifically, if a page is created in one language and then copied to another, with repeater fields added only in the translated version, these fields might not show up as expected. Solution: We recommend ensuring that you are using the ACFML addon and have set the field group mode to 'Different fields across languages'. It's crucial to use the
1
wpml_object_id
hook to retrieve the correct post ID in the translated language. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to implement this:
1
<?php<br />$repeater_field= 'rep'; // Change this to your repeater field name<br />$text_sub_field = 'text'; // Change this to your text field inside the repeater<br />$translated_post_id = apply_filters('wpml_object_id', get_the_ID(), 'post');<br />if (have_rows($repeater_field, $translated_post_id)) {<br /> echo '<ul>'; // Start a list for better formatting<br /> while (have_rows($repeater_field, $translated_post_id)) {<br /> the_row();<br /> $text_value = get_sub_field($text_sub_field);<br /> if ($text_value) {<br /> echo '<li>' . esc_html($text_value) . '</li>';<br /> }<br /> }<br /> echo '</ul>'; // Close the list<br />} else {<br /> echo '<p>No data available.</p>';<br />}<br />?>
If this solution does not resolve your issue, or if it seems outdated or irrelevant to your specific case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins.
