@hube2
well it seems this did not solve my problem all it did was stop the function from working.

This is the code I have… if i remark out the ‘remove action’ I get the loop error. If put it back it never actually works.

//Auto add and update post content field:
  function my_post_content_updater( $post_id ) {
  
  // unhook this function to prevent infinite looping
  remove_action('acf/save_post', 'my_post_content_updater', 20);   

 
    $my_post = array();
    $my_post['ID'] = $post_id;

    $bluemovement           = get_field('bluemovement');

    if ( get_post_type() == 'bluemovement' ) {
      $my_post['post_content'] = get_field('bmd_organization_desc');
    } 

    // Update the post into the database
    wp_update_post( $my_post );

  }
   
// run after ACF saves the $_POST['fields'] data
add_action('acf/save_post', 'my_post_content_updater', 20);   

Can we please poll Elliot on this as to why it all started with 5.2.9 ?
