## Description

ACF WPML Theme Options allows you to use another way of displaying Theme Options
fields defined with ACF and translated with WPML allowing you to avoid any kind 
of problems in the translation process.

Say goodbye to adding prefixes for field slugs in your Theme Options pages and displaying
it based on ICL_LANGUAGE_CODE and to other workarounds to make it work properly.

Instead of performing queries on translated ACF options pages, it allows you to 
assign custom fields to a custom post type and display the fields in your plugins
and themes with a single function.

After it is properly configured and all the requisites are met, you can use it by
calling get_field_option(‘option_name’) or by triggering it as a shortcode [get_field_option
option=”option_name”] – this feature allowing you to display options inside your
posts and pages content.

The plugin is dependent on ACF or ACF Pro and WPML. However, it will not work if
you are running a website which has both ACF and ACF Pro enabled at the same time.

## Installation

 1. Upload and activate plugin to your WP installation
 2. Go to Settings -> ACF WPML Theme Options
 3. Replace the default name of the Custom Post Type to be added (default is Global
    Settings) and save. (don’t worry if the new Custom Post Type doesn’t appear. You
    can click on the link which appears at the top in the body of the notification 
    or simply refresh the screen or navigate to another page. The custom post type 
    should appear afterwards).
 4. Create a post of the newly acf_wpml_to post type, save it and set it as active.
    You will be guided through the entire process by the notifications which appear
    at the top of the screen.
 5. In ACF / ACF Pro, create a new field group, add a few options and assign it to 
    your post type (for ACF -> Post Type = acf_wpml_to; for ACF Pro -> Post Type = 
    the name you chose in step #3 above).
 6. You’re good to go. Don’t forget to translate the acf_wpml_to posts you create in
    order to benefit of the full functionality of this plugin. (you will be nagged 
    by a warning notification until you do that) 🙂
