Nice work, 6.1.2 update seems to fix the issue in our case 🚀

from acf.

Hey folks, thanks for the reports on this one.

As mentioned earlier in the thread we released ACF 6.1.2 today, which should resolve most if not all of these issues.

We do still recommend registering things like field groups and options pages inside the acf/init hook if possible, so we're going to update our documentation and the ACF PHP export code to reflect this.

I can confirm that something has changed. Our hooks added to "acf/init" are not working anymore, at all.

This is a bug? Or an intended, but undocumented change?!

thanks for the report. this should to the trick right?

add_action("acf/init",function(){
if( function_exists('acf_add_local_field_group') ):
	
	acf_add_local_field_group(array(
		'key' => 'group_639ca3bf19def',
		'title' => 'Block: Content-Block',
		'fields' => array(
			array(
				'key' => 'field_639ca3bfbbaba',
				'label' => 'Content-Block',
				'name' => 'content-block',
				'aria-label' => '',
				'type' => 'select',
				'instructions' => 'Inhalte <a href="edit.php?post_type=ct_content_block" target="_blank">hier anlegen / ändern</a>',
				'required' => 0,
				'conditional_logic' => 0,
				'wrapper' => array(
					'width' => '',
					'class' => '',
					'id' => '',
				),
				'choices' => array(
					1701 => 'Wetter',
					1334 => 'Öffnungszeiten',
				),
				'default_value' => false,
				'return_format' => 'value',
				'multiple' => 0,
				'allow_null' => 0,
				'ui' => 0,
				'ajax' => 0,
				'placeholder' => '',
			),
		),
	));

endif;
});

We have the same issue here, our function that registers block_type are never called by the hook on acf/init.
It was working fine on 6.0.7 but it's broken since 6.1

We also have the same issue. It seems that every add_action( 'acf/init', function(){} ) -call in our theme does actually nothing, since ACF has already triggered acf/init-hook before theme executes add_action(). I think the reason is this change in acf_add_local_field_group() -function in 6.1.1 update.

Depending on how and where you run acf_add_local_field_group() -functions, this can create race-condition situation where acf_add_local_field_group() (and thus acf_init() and thus do_action('acf/init') ) is executed before add_action( 'acf/init', function(){} ) is executed in theme.

For example, we had following code in mu-plugin:

add_action( 'plugins_loaded', function () {
	if ( function_exists( 'acf_add_local_field_group' ) ) :
		acf_add_local_field_group( $args );
	endif;
} );

When we changed it to use acf/init instead of plugins_loaded -hook, everything seems to be working fine.

However, the same issue occurs also, if I follow the official documentation and add acf_add_local_field_group() straight to the functions.php of theme. So I'm not sure whether or not this is issue with ACF or just how we use ACF 🤔 Nevertheless at least the docs should be changed so that acf_add_local_field_group() is always inside of acf/init -hook in every code examples.

Thank you very much.

I.e. you recognise it as a bug and I don't have to change my code and should wait for the update?
