Tell us what you are trying to do?
Hello)
I want to use translations from current site on my other site with wpml plugin.
I've already exported ACF fields that are necessary for translations.
Is there some build-in options (which i didn't find).
Or maybe i can copy .mo files?

Hello,
Thank you for contacting us

You can export the content created on the site by using WP All Export as described in this guide: https://wpml.org/documentation/plugins-compatibility/export-multilingual-websites-using-wp-all-export-wpml/

Keep in mind that if you are trying to only export the translation of the theme, then you might need to use this option instead: https://wpml.org/documentation/getting-started-guide/string-translation/#import-export-po

Regards,
Carlos

Hi, Carlos)
Thank you for reply.
So, as i understand there is no free option for me, correct?
WP All Export is not free.
The main part of my translations are ACF options field and WP All Export says that i should have an add-on for this.
right?

Hi there,

Yes, I guess there is no free option (please keep in mind that WP All Export falls outside of the scope of our support service). On the other hand, the option to export .mo/.po files from String Translation comes included in our plugins.

Regards,
Carlos

OK, thank you for reply)
About option to export .mo/.po files - will it solve my issue with ACF options page fields, or it just translates plugins service strings?

Hi,

The .mo/.po export option will export the translation of the strings in a specific domain. The translation of the ACF and its logic won't be exported with this option.

Regards!
