Query relationship values with WPML

Hello,

i’m using ACF + WPML + relationship fields.

On a city page, i do list different custom posts types ( like restaurants, hotels, etc… )

In default language ( french (FR) ) everything is OK.

i do list all those items by filtering meta with ID & LIKE.

Classic query, based on ACF doc.

		$args = array(
				'post_type' => 'restaurant',
				'posts_per_page' => -1,
				'meta_query' => array(
					array(
						'key' => 'contact_city', 
						'value' => '"' . get_the_ID() . '"',
						'compare' => 'LIKE'
						)
					)
				);		
		$query = new WP_Query($args);
		if ($query->have_posts() ) : while ( $query->have_posts() ) : $query->the_post();
			$title = get_the_title();
			$permalink = get_the_permalink();
			echo '<a href="'.$permalink.'">'.$title.'<a>';
		endwhile;
		endif;

But when i change language, i do have 0 results displayed. ( posts are translated & published in other languages ).

if i echo get_the_ID();

i get the good ID for each language
( fr = 1104 / en = 1123 )

If i change ‘value’ to 1104, i do have the correct results displayed in every language.

So this mean that my relationship are all based on FR id. How can i manage this ? To set ID as current language ID, or to query ID from FR relationship?

any idea ?

i found Advanced Custom Field Multilingual in other forum topics,
but if i activate this plugin nothing changes, except that i can not query with 1104 as previously ^^
