ok … looks like this is caused by the new default max_input_vars=1000
in php.ini. Changing that limit to 3000 solved the issue for me.
Maybe it is possible to add a check into ACF to issue some kind of information or error if this happens?
thx for your reply. I mean once you import this xml file you get like 145 fields. After clicking “update” there are only 62 files left. can you reproduce this?
sure. I was trying the beforementioned plugin and after saving the changed value it does not seem to save it.
After looking in the DB I see the value is stored with reference to the post_id of the field group so that is probably the reason why its not showing in the actual posts where this field group is assigned.
Is there any working method for bulk editing field values? Maybe as a paid Ad-on in the future? 🙂
oh I am sorry. I thought this is what the key was for.
Thank you. I did not correctly fill
'field_groups' => array(),
with my groupfields number. Working now 🙂
