I’ve just discovered this issue while working on a project with ACF Pro and WPML. Has there been any progress on fixing it?

If it’s helpful, we have reproduced the problem with basic installation of WordPress 4.2.2, ACF Pro 5.2.6, WPML Multilingual CMS 3.1.9.7 and WPML String Translation 2.1.4.

You can replicate the problem like so:

1. Create a custom taxonomy and assign to a post type.
2. Set the taxonomy to be translatable via WPML > Translation Options.
3. Add some terms to the taxonomy.
4. Create a new ACF field group.
5. Add a taxonomy field group and set it to the custom taxonomy created above.
6. Create a new post. No terms will be available for the custom field.
