I have most recent version of Pro Plugin
After extensive debugging I traced the issue to a missing file. The file acf.min.js is not present on the server at the expected path:
/wp-content/plugins/advanced-custom-fields-pro/assets/build/js/acf.min.js
Important note: The previous version of ACF Pro installed on this site had the same issue — acf.min.js was also missing. This suggests the file may be missing from the plugin package itself, or there is something specific about my environment that is preventing this file from being included.
Evidence:
Requesting the file directly returns HTTP 404 from the origin server
All other ACF JS files (acf-input.min.js, acf-pro-input.min.js, etc.) return 200 and are present
All ACF CSS files load correctly (200)
The acf JavaScript object never initializes on page load (typeof acf === ‘undefined’)
License is active and verified
Issue persists across two separate ACF Pro installs/versions
Version installed: 6.8.0.1
WordPress version: latest
Server: SiteGround (nginx)
Can you confirm whether acf.min.js should exist at that path, and if so provide a direct download or advise on why it may be missing from the package?
these are all console errors, I tuned off every other plugin an dit didnt help
