Hi @craigivemy
I would start here: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf-fields-post_object-query/
Hook into that bad boy and see what args are being set. I have found, unrelated to ACF, that sometimes I need to force the post_status=publish
for some things to return properly. Maybe start there?
You could also check this guy to see what’s being returned: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf-fields-post_object-result/
