I am trying to: see both authors of this article "L’industrie manufacturière de l’avenir en Belgique"

Link to a page where the issue can be seen: hidden link

I expected to see: both authors: "Ivan Van de Cloot" and "Stijn Ronsse"

Instead, I got: only Ivan

In Dutch (hidden link) both authors are visible

Hi, can you check to see if the author option "Stijn Ronsse" is translated in String Translation? Search for "Stijn Ronsse" and complete any outstanding translations for that name, and let me know if the French version begins to display as expected.

There were two fields like field itinera-author option wpcf-fields-checkboxes-option-23f649bce8e9a4512c9c12e52cbe6f28-1 value that were not completely translated, but even after adding the translation, the problem is still the same.

Okay thanks. I have looked at your View's query filter here:
hidden link

It appears that it's filtering Persons by "name", and attempting to match that up with the checked checkbox's value. I assume this is the "Name" field in Persons - Advanced Fields, correct? This persons's Name is empty in the French translation, which would cause that filter to fail:
hidden link
Can you check that field and see if adding the name here causes this author to appear as expected?

thank you for the solution, we had already told our client that they need to make sure the "Name" is filled in. They must have forgotten again.
