Hi

I am attempting a very similar thing to you but having the same problem. When I add a block, type some content into the editor, then deselect the block, and reselect it, the values I entered are missing.

I have stripped it all back to a really simple test in my functions.php file as follows:

acf_register_block(array(
	'name'			=> 'my_test',
	'title'			=> __('Test'),
	'description'		=> __('A Test'),
	'render_callback'	=> 'render_test',

));

function render_test() {
	$title = get_field('title');
	$content = get_field('content');

	?>

		<h2><?php echo $title ?></h2>
		<?php echo $content ?>

	<?php
}

My template is simply:

<?php get_header(); ?>

<?php the_content() ?>

<?php get_footer(); ?>

I am using 5.8-beta3. I am at a bit of a loss as to what is going on. If anyone could give me any suggestions, I would really appreciate it!!

Many thanks
David
