post_object not displaying pages in dropdown

Hello –
I’ve been using post_object for over a year to display selections from a list of pages within my site. For some reason the post_object dropdown in the WordPress page editor is now only displaying posts, media and contact forms and seems to have dropped pages completely. This happened after the recent update.

Any thoughts on how to get pages back in the dropdown list? I have “all” selected in the custom field for post type.

This is not an issue with the code to display the post_object on my website. The issue is with the plug-in functionality within WordPress.

Thanks. Does this mean I’m out of luck or is there a commit somewhere in the plug-in code I am supposed to change:

“It look like that post_object doesn’t like post_status ‘any’ for pages. When reverting back this commit, it works as it was before.”

… I am not sure I know how to “revert back” the commit.
