Options Page Not Loading from .json?

I have ACF Pro bundled into my Custom WP Theme and followed the instructions here: Including ACF within a plugin or theme I set up a acf-json folder and resaved all my field groups and they all saved themselves into a .json files (6 total) as expected including my Options page included as well.

So I pushed this out to my staging/dev website to test – all the field groups loaded except for the Options page for some strange reason? I now have the ability to sync up 5 field groups to the dev site but it should show (6) 1 for each of the .json files in my /acf-json/ folder. (My Options page is at /acf-json/group_60de1e5c…..json)

Is there any know issues I should be aware of or am I missing something here? Here is my code if someone can examine it for me: https://www.codepile.net/pile/Y0An7v1b

Thanks for any help!

Did you try to load the json manually with the acf/settings/load_json filter?

// Load ACF JSON for sync
add_filter( 'acf/settings/load_json', function( $paths ) use ( $acf_path ) {
    // remove original path (optional)
    unset( $paths[0] );
    // append path
    $paths[] = $acf_path;

    // return
    return $paths;
} );

I figured it out, I was also pulling in the options page via a php page and that’s why it wouldn’t load in the .json file.
