> If you create an ACF block and assign the field group to the block, you will at least be able to fill out the fields within the block. If the fields are for a CPT, you can add that block to a block template for the CPT, so that it’s there automatically when you create a new CPT post.
The fields created by ACF blocks are not saved as custom fields, so they’re not post meta. Therefore, this is not necessarily a solution.
A possible solution:
I found changing the position to “High (after title)” ('position' => 'acf_after_title') put the fields back in the main area, below the block editor.
