Hi Ria

Elliot here – ACF dev.

Thanks for the bug report.

I’ve got some code for you to test if that’s ok.

Can you please edit the file: fields/radio.php and replace the following function:

function update_value( $value, $post_id, $field ) {
		
		// bail early if no value (allow 0 to be saved)
		if( !$value && !is_numeric($value) ) return $value;
		
		
		// save_other_choice
		if( $field['save_other_choice'] ) {
			
			// value isn't in choices yet
			if( !isset($field['choices'][ $value ]) ) {
				
				// get raw $field (may have been changed via repeater field)
				// if field is local, it won't have an ID
				$selector = $field['ID'] ? $field['ID'] : $field['key'];
				$field = acf_get_field( $selector, true );
				
				
				// bail early if no ID (JSON only)
				if( !$field['ID'] ) return $value;
				
				
				// update $field
				$field['choices'][ $value ] = $value;
				
				
				// save
				acf_update_field( $field );
				
			}
			
		}		
		
		
		// return
		return $value;
	}

Try the problem again and let me know if it solves it.

Thanks
E
