Polylang ACF options settings

On Polylang Pro, the Languages → Settings page includes an ACF Options row for tuning async workload and translation retry behavior.

When Polylang Pro is not active, this settings row is not registered or displayed.

Shared workload thresholds (save and import) control when propagation and machine translation run synchronously versus in the background. They are available at three levels:

• Background-First — 50 propagation, 15 translation units, 10000 translation chars
• Adaptive — 100 propagation, 25 translation units, 15000 translation chars
• Immediate — 150 propagation, 40 translation units, 20000 translation chars

• Standard — 3 max retry attempts
• Persistent — 5 max retry attempts

Retry delays are fixed: 30, 120, 600, 1200 and 2400 seconds.

Use the Polylang settings UI for preset workload and retry profiles. For code-level overrides, see Available filters, Workload thresholds, and Translation retry behavior. For how thresholds affect saves, imports, and machine translation, see Field translation overview.
