ACF PRO 5.8.7 tends to not save some of the input

We also have an issue with ACF PRO 5.8.7, it tends to not save some of the input at the end of the list of custom fields. The behavior is somewhat random.

Thanks for looking into it! All the best, Hendrik

Notes:

json of the custom types below.

Well Murphy’s Law applied… after updating the test server and activating ACF again, it worked like a charm. The same holds for the production environment!

Issue can be closed :slight_smile:
