Form Fields/Actions missing ACF Extended 0.9 Free

Hello,

Thanks for the feedback!

Can you provide some more context?

Do you mean that you don’t see the “Add Action” button or “Add Field Group” field in the Form UI?

Or, did you have a form already configured in previous version and once you updated, the configured actions are gone in UI, like a reset?

If that’s the case, it is not normal as the forms should be migrated with the new version. What method did you use to update the plugin? The classic WordPress plugins admin page “update” link? Composer? Manual FTP upload?

In the meantime, you can always rollback to the previous version 0.8.9.5, and the form should get back in place.

Thanks!

Regards.

I had a simple contact form set on a number of websites, after update all the form settings are gone, the Fields groups is empty, any action set if empty as well. Most of them are pretty basic sites nothing special.

Okay I see.

Can you please provide some more information, as I cannot reproduce this scenario.

• What method did you use to update the plugin?

The classic WordPress plugins admin page “update” link? Composer? Manual FTP upload? a WP “manager” app such as managewp?

• What is your WordPress & ACF version?

This way I can try to reproduce the issue. Please rollback the previous version if you need a quickfix in the meantime. Otherwise, you can stick to the new version and reconfigure the form.

Thanks!

Regards.

Everything is latest version, ACF Extemded was set to update automatically from the wordpress admin plugin list. It happenend with about 30 websites, on 3 different servers

Thanks for the details. I’m coming back to you after some more tests.

Regards.

Hello again,

I managed to reproduce the issue using the WP Auto Updater feature as you suggested, and found the root of the problem. I’m wrapping up an update.

In the meantime, in order to fix the issue, please add the following code in your functions.php file (using the latest 0.9 version):

// ACFE: fix 0.8.9.5 > 0.9 upgrade with wp auto-update
add_action('acf/init', 'acfe_fix_init', 999);
function acfe_fix_init(){
    
    $instance = acf_get_instance('acfe_module_form_upgrades');
    $instance->upgrade_0_9('0.8.9.5');
    
}

Then visit your WP Admin dashboard, logged as admin. This will correctly setup your forms. You can then remove the code from your functions.php file.

Thanks again for the report, and sorry for the inconvenience.

Regards.

Thanks again for the report, it was a sneaky bug. And sorry for the inconvenience.

Have a nice day!
