Unfortunately the plugin does not work when using several languages in combination with the wpml and acf plugins.

Problem description. Follow these steps to reproduce the problem: Install the WPML Plugin Install the ACF Plugin Add several languages to your wordpress installation Create a custom field with acf for the posts (metabox style) translate the custom field with the help of wpml plugin Go to tabify Switch into a specific language in the wordpress backend and make some tabs add the custom metabox (made with acf before) to a specific tab. save switch into another language: Now the problem occours: In this language the metabox is automatically showed in the last tab.

It doesn't have to be perse the issue of this plugin but more how WPML and ACF works. I just did some minor fixes to improve the logic but I have no clue how WPML works. If they change the metabox id then it become tricky on my end to fix that.
