Hi @meneldil
Back then, the forum was used as a place to provide support to the users. But we have moved the support to a new environment. Thus the forum now is used as a place for the community instead. Even though the plugin author checks the forum too, but it’s not often.
Now, the best way to get the plugin author’s attention is to submit a ticket through https://support.advancedcustomfields.com/new-ticket.
I hope this makes sense 🙂
