I’ve installed the PRO version and want to use different options pages. I’ve tried every options to create them in functions.php, but non of them are showing them in the sidebar.
Default i use: register_options_page(‘Website algemeen’);
Good to know that they’re accesable by using a direct URL (/wp-admin/admin.php?page=acf-options-website-algemeen)
Is the a PRO bug?
Rather a read the documentation for the upgrade from version 4 to 5 ;)))))

Changes to Options Pages
Previously, the default Options page was added automatically on activation of the Options Page add-on. Now that the Options Page functionality is built into ACF PRO, this will no longer be an automatic process, and the default Options Page will need to be added manually by adding this code to your functions.php file:
acf_add_options_page();
It is good practice to wrap this inside a function_exists if statement and above any defined sub pages like so:
if(function_exists('acf_add_options_page')) {
acf_add_options_page();
acf_add_options_sub_page('Header');
acf_add_options_sub_page('Footer');
}

Just to provide a little more detail.
if(function_exists('acf_add_options_page')) {
acf_add_options_page(array(
'page_title' => 'My Settings Page',
'menu_title' => 'My Settings',
'menu_slug' => 'my_settings',
'capability' => 'edit_posts',
'redirect' => false,
));
acf_add_options_sub_page(array(
'title' => 'Header',
'slug' => 'header',
'parent' => 'my_settings',
));
}
Also to note, if you have 2 acf_add_options_page() with acf_add_options_sub_page() of the same ‘title’ you will need to use a different slug.
acf_add_options_sub_page(array(
'title' => 'Header',
'slug' => 'header',
'parent' => 'my_settings',
));
acf_add_options_sub_page(array(
'title' => 'Header',
'slug' => 'other_header',
'parent' => 'my_other_settings',
));
Great answers, didn’t no of this functionality. Thnx a lot.
