Excerpt box missing with ACF plugin activated

  • Hi there,

    Excerpt box is missing in classic editor (screen options and metabox in post editing) when ACF plugin activated. If I desactive the plugin, the Excerpt box appears again.
    I use ACF 5.8 with WordPress 5.2 and classic editor 1.5

  • Did you find an answer to this? I’m getting the same issue.

    A little more digging and I found the problem was nothing to do with ACF.

    I was using a custom post type of ‘event_listing’ which didn’t have the excerpt field enabled. Adding the following to my child functions.php fixed it:

    add_post_type_support( ‘event_listing’, ‘excerpt’ );

    Doesn’t sound like the same problem you had, but may help.
