Problem:
You are encountering an issue where the ACF Link field type is not available for translation when the field group is set to "Same fields across languages" mode. This problem is significant because it affects the functionality of WPML's AI automatic translation, particularly for sites that rely on ACF Link fields.
Solution:
We recommend adding the following code to your theme's functions.php file:

add_filter( 'acfml_field_group_mode_field_translation_preference', function( $fieldTranslationPreference, $groupMode, $field ) {<br />    $fieldType = $field['type'] ?? null;<br />    if ( 'link' === $fieldType ) {<br />        return 2; // `WPML_TRANSLATE_CUSTOM_FIELD`.<br />    }<br />    return $fieldTranslationPreference;<br />}, 10, 3 );

This code modifies the default behavior for the link field, requiring you to resave the field groups that use link fields. After applying this workaround, some post translation statuses might change to "needs update" because the link field has been added to the translation signature, and it should now appear in the ATE translation job.

If this solution does not resolve your issue or seems outdated, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have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. If the problem persists, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum for further assistance.
