Reply To: oEmbed field does not work in a new Group field

Upon further research, the problem originates with class-acf-field-oembed.php – function get_ajax_query()

The Group Field key is passed through to acf_get_field which returns false.

If you comment out:

// load field
$field = acf_get_field( $args['field_key'] );
if( !$field ) return false;

// prepare field to correct width and height
$field = $this->prepare_field($field);

and put in a temp array:

$field = [
'width' => 300,
'height' => 280
];

Then the oEmbed in a Group Field works correctly.

So the issue is with acf_get_field not being able to handle a Group Field key.
