Hi @sigma
Please keep in mind that ACF saves two entries in the wp_postmeta table, which are the value and the reference.
The value looks like this:
custom_field_name : the value
While the reference looks like this:
_custom_field_name : field_12345657890abc
Where “field_12345657890abc” is the field key.
Reading your explanation, I believe the issue was because you haven’t added the reference key to the database. Could you please add the reference too and see how it goes 🙂
