ACF Missing Recently I went to an old post to update some data and the ACF fields are missing in the post edit.
Not in Screen Options I look at the Screen options and there is no option for WP native Custom Fields or for ACF fields.
Disable ACF? I disable ACF, and WP native Custom Fields shows up in Screen Option, and I enable it… it shows me ACF fields in a non-typical format. Okay.
I re-active ACF and its all gone again.
I looked at a number of similar threads and have not gotten any answers thus far.
Misc I use Avada and ACF Basic
Carefully working through all the settings, I see that the location rule for the field group had been changed.
FYI, I think this happened when I changed the name of the target category. The rule (apparently?) reset itself to target the “uncategorized” category.
Maybe this is a bug?
