Hi,

I’m having trouble getting a custom field type built on ACF field type template (https://github.com/AdvancedCustomFields/acf-field-type-template) to work in an ACF Block. Seems to work nicely in a CPT without Gutenberg and on an ACF Settings Page (obviously without Gutenberg too).

When used in a block, the values don’t seem to get saved at all and the preview doesn’t get updated. After hours of banging my head I just can’t seem to find what’s the problem.

The field type plugin can be found here:

Solved. Needed to trigger change event for ACF to register values.
