Problem:
The client is using the

acfml_should_translate_acf_entity

hook to control the translation of ACF fields based on their keys. Despite the function returning false for fields with keys including '_level', these fields still appear in the WPML translation editor.
Solution:
1. We recommended verifying the translation settings directly in the PHP code for ACF fields and adjusting them as necessary. Documentation on setting translation preferences for ACF fields created using PHP can be found here: Setting the translation preferences for ACF fields created using PHP code.
2. For fields like links within repeaters, where only the label should be translatable, it's a known issue. A workaround is suggested while a fix is planned for ACFML 2.2.0. More details can be found in this forum post: Translating ACF link field in Advanced Translation Editor.

If this solution does not resolve your issue or seems outdated, please check related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verify the version of the permanent fix, and confirm that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If the problem persists, we highly recommend opening a new support ticket at WPML support forum.
