In my case it turned out to be an issue with another plugin, Stream (2.0). Disabling the plugin got ACF working again.
Page post types here aren’t saving either. Running 5.0.8.
+1 for being able to export/import option page values
Just wanted to follow-up on this again.
In the case of a particular project a bulk of the values are being stored as “Options” and, accordingly, wouldn’t come over by default (unless I’m missing something) with an import/expert of post content.
Any ideas on how I might give users the ability to “Export” their saved options and “Import” them into another installation with the same fields?
The use-case here, particularly in the case of ACF Pro, is a plugin/theme combination that’s being “cloned” (and customized) to another installation.. Using the JSON files they’ll automatically have the same *field groups* but they would all be empty. We’re dealing with 100+ settings so I’d like them to be able to import and pre-populate them from the previous installation.
Thanks for the follow-up Douglas.
In my case, the issue I’m running into is the high volume of settings and the fact that most of the values are associated with an “Options” page, versus a post.
The *ideal* would be a way to “export” all values associated with “Options” pages and then “import” them into another installation.
Hi Elliot – Thanks for the follow-up. Are the “Options” values stored in the wp_postmeta table as well? In this particular case I am wanting to target only the field values that have been saved to a series of settings screens setup using the “Options Page” Add-on.
Thanks for the follow-up, Elliot!
Would that explain why some options screens setup with that method work and some don’t? (I probably have more than 10 setup) There didn’t seem to be a clear explanation.
In the above example we’re using:
acf_add_options_sub_page('Nearby Properties');
I have that within a plugin class that triggers on init.
