Hard refresh did the job here too – nice simple fix!
Great news – thanks!
By the way – when you get time ( I know that might be a while ! ) – please take a look at this number slider field type plugin for ACF – any feedback would be warmly welcomed!

Hi Elliot,
Thanks for getting back to me.
Your suggestion sounds about right – but I don’t understand why on some pages the field types are loading normally – I have Query Monitor plugin installed and this informs me of slow or heavy queries – and it does not complain at all.
I have put in place a temporary fix ( manually re-creating the selects from the data ) – this is good enough for a few weeks – when is V5 due out – I’d be happy to wait?
Cheers 🙂

Sorry – one more update.
If I select a field type “Page Link” it also returns an empty select – so I’m guessing that something in the content ( title ) of one of the pages is throwing ACF out – but that would not explain why I can view pages on other screens – such as New Page?
Also – if I select a “Post Object” field type – but do not filter the results by post type – instead select “All” – no pages appear in the select options on the New Page screen ( it lists all other posts in all other post_types ) – they do however appear in all other screens.
I should mention – I got the custom post type “Post Object” select to work by filtering the items shown – I selected all the terms in a certain taxonomy and this allowed the select to include all the posts in that custom post type.
I’ve been trying to add a taxonomy to pages to do the same – but so far, it’s not working because ACF does not recognise the “page_tags” taxonomy that I’ve added.
Hey,
I’ve been trying to find the source of this bug for a week now – and it’s driving me a little crazy.
There are NO JS errors – nothing in the PHP Error log.. and on some screens the selects load fine – for example new page or add new custom post type.
But – on the new post screen I can’t get it to load a “Post Object” that shows either pages or a custom post type – other field types like “Taxonomy” are working fine and normally on all views.
What more – on my localhost install – this all works fine on all views – same version – my localhost copy has an older version of the site content and possibly one or two plugins different – but I tried to disable those on the list site and it made no obvious difference.
I’ve tried adding new ACF groups and breaking the options up / re-ordering and removing certain fields – but the result is the same – an empty select for the field type “Post Object” on the new post screen.
What more can I try?
Cheers

Hi – this bug report has sat unread for over a week – do I need to provide extra info or file this report in a different way?
Thanks!
