This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
The client is using Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) with a 'repeater' field type for a post type and is unable to see the translated values in the front end, although the fields are visible and translated in the Advanced Translation Editor (ATE).

Solution:
We asked the client to provide a screenshot of the repeater fields configuration, including the translation preferences. This is to ensure that there is no misconfiguration causing the issue. If you're experiencing a similar problem, we recommend checking the translation preferences for your ACF repeater fields. If the issue persists, please resave the post using the 'Edit page' dialog, as this might resolve formatting issues that can occur when translations are made through the ATE.

Please note that this solution might be outdated or not applicable to your case. If the problem persists, we highly recommend checking the related known issues, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If you still need help, don't hesitate to open a new support ticket in the WPML support forum.

Hello There,
Thanks for contacting WPML Support.

I understand the issue you're having. Given that you're using the Repeater field, could you kindly provide a screenshot of the fields configured within the Repeater? It would be particularly useful if the screenshot could also show the translation preferences for these fields, as this might help determine whether the issue stems from a misconfiguration. I will check and let you know what to do next.

Looking forward to your response and am ready to offer any additional assistance you may need with this issue.

Best regards,
Prosenjit
