How to use ACF

   1. Add or Edit your fields groups,
   2. Location : Define where those field(s) should appear within the Wordpress webapp (post, page, page template, custom post, taxonomy),
   3. Settings : Define the layout of this group.
3. Navigate to (ACF) Tools from the menu,
   1. Click the Export the PHP option to register your fields,
   2. Copy/Paste the PHP lines within your theme’s functions.php file.
4. Use the proper ACF function to « get the fields » in your custom page template (ex.: singular-product.php).

A best practice is to encasulate the 'title', 'label', 'instructions' or whatever values within the translation ready format __('Value string', 'Instruction for translators', 'textDomain') on the for multilingual fields.
