I made a little change in api.php to turn ACF compatible with qTranslate.
My code:
function the_field( $field_name, $post_id = false )
{
$value = get_field($field_name, $post_id);
if( is_array($value) )
{
$value = @implode(', ',$value);
}
echo __($value); //changed
}
I don’t know if it is the better approach, but it works.
Could you include this fix in future releases ?
Hi @flunardelli
Thanks for the code. I’ll have a think about this before adding it in. Yes it is a simple and effective fix, but it also prevents a user from loading the DB value without it being translated to the current language which could effect some websites which use fields for attributes such as classes.
Thanks

You don’t need to modify ACF can just throw this in your functions.php
add_filter('acf/format_value_for_api', 'theme_format_value_for_api');
function theme_format_value_for_api($value) {
return is_string($value) ? __($value) : $value;
}
