Hey,
Here’s a peculiar problem for you:
When I update my location rules for any field group, they are saved in the database (post_content for that field group), but no change is reflected in the admin area. That is, until I reinstall WP via the admin screen.
To reiterate my steps:
1. I update a location rule for a field group.
2. The screen refreshes and my newly set rule is gone.
3. Check some screen the rule was supposed affect – say I added a post type rule. The field group is not visible in said post type edit screen.
4. Check the DB for said field group, see that the post_content field has the correctly serialized rules including the rule I added in step 1 (the data is not corrupted, serialization is properly executed). So it’s not that the data is not saved.
5. I reinstall WP via the WP updates screen.
6. My newly set rule is visible in the field group edit screen as well as eg. post type edit screen.
I’m running the latest WP, a network installation, the latest ACF PRO on an NGINX server.
I’ve tried updating everything and all. I’ve tried disabling all other plugins, switching to the default theme. Nothing helps.
I don’t get any errors in the console. There’s nothing in my servers NGINX error log.
However, I also cannot replicate this issue on my localhost. That said, my localhost is running on Apache – all other settings (plugins etc.) are the same. But I really can’t figure out why that would have anything to do with it.
Have you ever encountered anything similar or would you have any idea on what I should try next?
