Ok, I had to disable the plugin “Dynamic Hostname” and everything worked as usual. So, apparently there’s something incompatible between the two.
I would like to add that a pending/published filter would be awesome as well. Like if you have a CPT for News, you could filter them by status, or author as well! This could be huge!!
Well, I’ve tried the same with a new WP install and works perfectly!
I had once installed a categories related plugin which was removed. I guess that broke something permanently in my site.
Hi Elliot, thanks for The reply.
– ACF does indeed read all changes made with the native categories metabox. It looks like ACF can’t change and save data.
– I have 2 more ACF fields and they save just fine.
I am using the latest WordPress and ACF. Maybe I Should try a brand new wordpress install just to re-check.
