No options pages exist …

I am just starting to develop a new plugin, and for some reason ACF isn’t seeing my options page. I have no other plugins activated and my plugin has only this code:

add_action( 'admin_menu', 'mjt_track_settings_page');

function mjt_track_settings_page() {
    if( function_exists('acf_add_options_page') ) {
    	acf_add_options_page( array(
		'page_title' 	=> __('Tracker','mjt-track'),
		'menu_title'	=> __('Tracker', 'mjt-track'),
                'menu_slug'     => 'mjt-track',
		'parent_slug'	=> 'options-general.php',
                'capability'    => 'manage_options',
                'position'      => false,
                'icon_url'      => false,
	));
    }
}

When I go to ACF and select option page, I see “No options pages exist”.

I have reverted to the previous version to see if that was an issue, however I still get this error.

the admin_menu hook is too late to add the options pages because that’s when acf runs the function that adds the options pages you want.

Change your hook to

add_action( 'init', 'mjt_track_settings_page');

you could also to in to admin_init or as early as plugins_loaded
