ACF Options page config

In case it helps, here is the options page I am trying to make multi-language:

wp-admin/admin.php?page=acf-options-site-fields (I’ve tried hypenated and underscored in the admin_pages bit)

Hi @spoonofmilk
If You are using ACF, You do not need to add configuration for ACF to config file.
You need to add screen ID for current screen (not a page slug) in ‘admin_pages’ section.

I too am having an issue figuring this out.

Here is my options page code

acf_add_options_sub_page(array(
        'page_title'    => 'Theme Header Settings',
        'menu_title'    => 'Header',
        'parent_slug'    => 'theme-general-settings',
    ));

I tried adding the “post_id” parameter and giving it an obscure number (9256), then adding this to my config file

{
  "admin_pages": [
    9256
  ],
}

No luck.

You need to find out the screen ID in the current admin screen. It available in WP_Screen object.

@valexar

I used get_current_screen, but it gives me back a string, not an int.

[“id”]=> string(36) “toplevel_page_theme-general-settings”

Here is my wpm-config.json file, located in the theme root ( tried for my nav menus, too)

{
  "admin_pages": [
    "toplevel_page_theme-general-settings",
    "nav-menus",
  ],
}

No luck on either page. To make things worse, ACF is now not working on the edit menu page, unless I deactivate the plugin.

ID for admin screen always is a string.
Why You added “nav-menus” to config? There is already a language switcher.
What version of ACF? What fields do you use? Where exactly are you using these fields? In the menu item or the entire menu?

@valexar

I added “nav-menus” because ACF was not working on my menu page unless I disabled this plugin, so I thought maybe I had to update the config file to make it work.

I use the latest PRO version of ACF. I am trying to add an image uploader to menu items. It works fine when I deactivate WP Multilang but with the plugin active, I don’t see the uploader in the menu items.

Thank You. I found the bug. It will be fixed in next version.

You’re welcome. Sorry to bring this up again, but I’m still unable to get my options page working. I have a text field on there (as well as some other fields), and not even the text field is translatable.

Here’s my basic wpm-config.json file, which is located in my theme’s root.

{
  "admin_pages": [
    "theme-settings_page_acf-options-footer",
  ],
}

I got that ID displayed by putting the following in functions.php

function id_WPSE_114111() {
    var_dump(get_current_screen());
}

add_action( 'admin_notices', 'id_WPSE_114111' );

Hi @jordanwebdev
On the page ‘theme-settings_page_acf-options-footer’ exist language switcher?

I do not see the language switcher. I only see the generic one in the wp-admin, but that does not appear to be what I need here. I need to fill those ACF fields in multiple languages.

At the top, you can see the screen object is outputted.

Hi!

I put this code into the .json file:
{
“admin_pages”: [
“toplevel_page_theme-special-settings”,
],
}

And there is not language switcher. ??

Hi @digitalform
You need to get the page id from ‘get_current_screen()’ in admin.

Hi VaLeXaR,

The ACF Options page id is 12810 (or toplevel_page_theme-special-settings). But the language switcher isn’t in the ACF Options page?

My code:

{
“admin_pages”: [
12810,
“toplevel_page_theme-special-settings”
],
},
