acf/register_fields hook missing

Going through the process of testing and upgrading my plugins to work with the new version of ACF. In my plugins I use the hook “acf/register_fields” to call plugin functions to register field groups. It appears this hook is not in ACF-Pro. Is this intentional? Should I be changing my plugins to use a different hook?

Hi @Hube2

This action has changed to acf/include_fields to avoid ACF4 field types from being included in ACF5.
I’ve just updated this doc to show the changed action:

Sorry for the issue!

Thanks

Thanks E for the quick response. I was wondering how I was going to alter some of the fields according to http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/updates/upgrading-v4-v5/ and have compatibility with both 4 & 5. This answers that question as well.
