Hi John,
Thanks for your continued help with this.
ACF does not append the field group name to the field name when adding it to the database.
It’s prepend actually, but essentially the above doesn’t appear correct. Please see the attached screenshots of a sample ACF Config in ACF Pro latest, the text added via Edit Post screen, and the resulting database values.
Thanks,
Scott
