Problem: You are using WPML's String Translation to translate a field in the Theme options found in Customizer. While other fields translate correctly and show on the front-end, one specific field does not appear after translation. Solution: First, ensure that your theme supports the translation of this specific field. If the issue persists, follow these steps: 1. When adding a string from the admin text, select to export XML configuration. 2. Add the exported XML to WPML > Settings > Custom XML Configuration. This method helps WPML to manually detect and register the strings for translation, ensuring they display correctly on the front-end.

Problem: The client had an issue where the field labels on an admin page created with ACF and displayed using
acf_form()
were not showing the translated versions after migrating the website, despite working correctly on the development site. Solution: First, we suggested checking if the translations for the labels were available on the migrated site by following this guide: Translating ACF field labels with WPML. If the translations were available but not appearing, we recommended regenerating the MO files: 1. Navigate to "WPML > Support > Troubleshooting". 2. Scroll down and click on "Show custom MO Files Pre-generation dialog box". 3. After the page refreshes, a popup will appear. Click on the "Generate MO File" button and wait for the process to complete.
