Thanks Dina!

I think a lot of the open support requests are due to this “bug” / not so considerate blocks implementation from WooCommerce.

Perhaps a sticky post explaining this can be helpful.

For others finding this post:
This can happen when two incompatible versions of guzzle are used at the same time. For instance in two active plugins.

(a bit late but perhaps handy for others having similar problems)

It should be saved on submit without an additional acf save button.

Do you have the correct conditions for viewing the added field(s) ?
In ACF field group settings by “location” / “Show this field group if” you need:
Woocommerce -> is equal to -> checkout
OR
Content type -> is equal to -> order

The last one is required to show you the field(s) on the order page in the admin area.
Not sure if this is your problem, but I thought values weren’t saved until I added the “Content type -> is equal to -> order” line.

I am facing the same issue.

In my case, I have a virtual product that is actually a consultation request with the question as a Text Area field. A customer has written a nice question, then on checkout the customer decides he needs to correct a typo, clicks the “view product” link and all entered data is gone..

I guess this is due to the fact that the view product link is going to a plain, unedited product, not the configured product.

Perhaps removing the product link from the checkout page, replacing it with a link to the cart and allowing editing the fields on the cart page might be a solution. But this does not seem to work for the Text Area field (not editable on cart page)

I have several ACF fields that show up on the registration field. And are saved on registration/saving.

I currently allow the user to select a role (ACF field) then process that selection in the ‘acf/update_value’ hook and add the actual role(s) there.

You could hook into this ‘acf/update_value’ filter and manually map the selected categories to the “Subscribe to Categories” way of saving this information for a user. Not sure if this plugin provides you with any actions to do this programmatically.

Same issue too, roll back is required

This is exactly what I am looking for. Could we help in getting this into a future release?

You should be able to restore the database from this backup using this guide: https://codex.www.ads-software.com/Restoring_Your_Database_From_Backup
Using phpmyadmin. I am not familiar with this specific backup plugin, but if youextract the tar file you will probably find the exported database file.

What kind of backup do you have?

This sounds horrible, but it is also unlikely that this plugin deleted your posts.
Did you heed the warning to create a backup before running the optimize task ?

Have you found a solution, other than the one provided by bcworkz? This behavior looks like a bug to me..

I’m sorry, I never meant to insult with that statement. I guess I have rather strong feelings about IE.

First of all, stop using IE. It should die rather sooner than later.
Secondly, I had this too on the latest Chrome browser. But a refresh was sufficient to get going again.

I must say this theme is totally blowing my mind. Just discovered it today but it looks very promising.

This for me is also a reason to jump ship. I was already annoyed by the warning notification emails about plugin updates, as I have automatic updates in place. This is the tipping point.

Hi John,

I have a member site where members use the backend to create custom post types. I use backend CSS for example to hide fields or style certain elements specific to a certain role or content type.

Thanks for a great plugin.
