i got a wp site with the WPML plugin and the CFT plugin. I set up custom fields for posts and what i’m trying to do is to keep the content of an input type file from the original post to its translation. That would save time as the pictures are the same between both posts and also save disk space on the ftp.
So far i couldnt get it working, not even to get basic input type text automatically pasted from the 1st post to its translation. I tried the different options in WPML > Translation management > Mutlilingual content setup > Custom fields translation without any result.
PS: am using WP 3.1.3, WPML 2.0.4.1 and CFT 1.9.2.
The latest version of WPML (version 2.3) has a new module for Media and this module takes care of the previous images issue.
Now there is no longer the need to upload the same image twice.
Just like copying the content from the original language, it is now also possible to duplicate the images and/or the featured image:
