I have trouble programmatically creating field group for specific options page.
I have created options page with code and this works ok. Then I went to create field group by clicking options and I have placed a repeater field with image for that options page.
This worked ok, so I went to Tools, selected the field group I just created and clicked “Generate export code”. The code I got I placed inside register_acf_fields function I am showing you, then I have commented out this code and deleted previously created field group. But when I remove comments so that I can check if this class works, I got nothing but options page is showing all right.
What did I do wrong? It doesn’t work with add_action(‘acf/init’…
class mypictures {
public function __construct() {
add_action('init', array( $this, 'register_logo_options_page'));
add_action('init', array( $this, 'register_acf_fields'));
}
public function register_logo_options_page() {
if( function_exists('acf_add_options_page') ) {
$option_page = acf_add_options_page(array(
'page_title' => 'Pictures',
'menu_title' => 'Pictures',
'menu_slug' => 'mypictures',
'capability' => 'edit_posts',
'redirect' => false
));
}
}
public function register_acf_fields () {
/* var_dump('asdf');
die();*/
if( function_exists('acf_add_local_field_group') ):
acf_add_local_field_group(array (
'key' => 'group_582d62b7af067',

endif;
}
}
$mypictures = new mypictures();
The value for the location rule should be the slug of the options page ‘mypictures` in this case.
