Advanced Custom Fields Multilingual ACF

Advanced Custom Fields Multilingual (ACF Multilingual)

For WordPress developers building multilingual websites with Advanced Custom Fields, the ACF Multilingual integration provides essential functionality for creating truly localized content experiences. This powerful compatibility layer bridges ACF with multilingual plugins like WPML and Polylang, solving one of the most complex challenges in multilingual WordPress development – keeping custom fields synchronized across translations.

The solution works by establishing relationships between field values in different language versions, ensuring content updates propagate correctly while maintaining each translation’s unique content where needed. Developers can configure which fields should be synchronized and which should remain independent per language, providing granular control over the translation workflow. The integration handles all field types including complex repeaters and flexible content fields, maintaining structural integrity across translations.

Key Features:

1. Seamless integration with WPML and Polylang
2. Field-level translation controls
3. Support for all ACF field types
4. Synchronization of repeater and flexible content fields
5. Option to share or duplicate field values between languages
6. Works with ACF options pages
7. Maintains relationship fields across translations
8. Compatible with ACF Pro features
9. No content duplication when not needed
10. Preserves field group organization across languages

For content teams, the interface adds intuitive translation management directly within the familiar ACF field editing experience. Translators see clear indicators showing which fields require translation and which are synchronized. The system prevents common multilingual content issues like orphaned fields or broken relationships that can occur when manually managing translations.
