Hi John,

I think I found the cause of the issue just don’t know what’s causing it (no error in the console unfortunately), so if an ACF field has a conditional that is checking if the WYSIWYG text editor field contains something/nothing the issue will occur.

Here’s my setup (should’ve provided these earlier sorry!):
WordPress 6.0.3
Advanced Custom Fields PRO 6.0.3
PHP 7.4.1

Here is the PHP code of the ACF setup:

acf_add_local_field_group(array(
    'key' => 'group_6348ca70dcee0',
    'title' => 'News Posts',
    'fields' => array(

        array(
            'key' => 'field_634f750f155ad',
            'label' => 'This field is the cause of the issue?',
            'name' => 'using_a_conditional_to_hide_this_field_so_cilents_wont_tamper_with_it',
            'type' => 'text',
            'instructions' => '',
