Wpml global block with loopers from acf field does not show up in frontend

[deranaloge]

hi there,
i have several global blocks, where i use a acf fields global site.

page builder => global block

when i now translate the global block to a second language, all content from the looper does show up in the backend, but the frontend is empty.

any advice?
thanks in advance

Hey Harry,

The Global Blocks translation is a known issue. Don’t use the translation flags for now. Instead, create a separate Global Block for each language and insert them to each page version.

Hope that helps.

hello i did that but that did not work…
any advice?
thanks

btw: something is wrong with the builder, sometimes it does not load, sometimes i get an error… strange…

Hi Harry,

Adding content to the page for different languages is the only option in your case. I have checked the page through the Page Builder and found that you are still using the Global Blocks, I would request you follow the suggestion given by my colleague and let us know if any issues are found after that.

Thanks

hi tristup,
thanks for your answer.
yes i have made a separate global block for the second language. just like your colleague christian said.
unfortunately this does not work.

what should i do now? i need the global block because i have the content in an accordion. i can’t just insert the content there like i do now.

thanks again

Hey @deranaloge,

You’re using the same Global Block in both of the languages [cs_gb name="fotos"]. Where’s your other Global Block? Use it in one of the page language version.

Thanks.

hi christian,
as in my previous post i talked about the PARTNER global block so the first accordion.
global block in de: [cs_gb name=“partner”]
global block in en: [cs_gb name=“partner_presse_en”]

no output in frontend!
thanks again

Hey @deranaloge,

The Global Blocks itself is working as indicated by the English texts.

Your Dynamic Content in the Global Block, however, is in German. That could be why it’s not showing up in the English page.

Try taking data from a translated source or simply change the static text instead of Dynamic Content.

Thanks.
