The client is using ACF Pro to set up a custom post type (CPT) called 'Case Studies' and needs to translate the URL slug for different languages, aiming for a structure like '/references/case-studies/{cpt-title}' for English.
Solution:
We recommend following these steps:
1) Navigate to WPML >> Settings >> Slug Translations. 2) Enable the option: 'Translate base slugs of custom post types and taxonomies (via WPML → Taxonomy translation)'. 3) Scroll down to the Post Types Translation section. 4) Click on 'Set different slugs in different languages'. 5) Enter the translated slug for each language and save the changes. 6) Go to Settings >> Permalinks and click 'Save Changes' (no need to modify anything). 7) Clear all types of caches (plugin, browser, server, CDN, etc.). For further guidance, refer to our documentation on translating page slugs and translating slugs for custom post type archives.
If this solution does not apply to your case, or if it seems outdated, please open a new support ticket. We also 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.
