    Hi,

    we’ve used ACF and Otter Pro to add a custom field to Otter’s Posts block (news feed on a front page). It turns out the Date Picker field cannot be selected on the posts block. Text field can be selected.

    Trying to select the date picker field, the posts block doesn’t show it as an option. It shows only the date picker field’s title that is not selectable.

    Hi,

    I’m not able to attach an image here, but here are the steps:

    • With Advanced Custom Fields, I created a new field group (“Artikkelisy?te”) and a field that has field type Date picker and label + name P?iv?m??r?
    • Rules are to Show this field group if post type is equal to Post
    • On the front page we’re building, I have the Otter posts block for a news feed. In block settings post type is post and for elements I added a custom field (“Add custom field”)
    • Now when I open the custom field, in Fields dropdown it has the new field group name (Artikkelisy?te) visible but not the field (P?iv?m??r?). It doesn’t allow me to click / select the field group name
    • If I go and change the field type of P?iv?m??r? to text instead of date picker and then go back to the posts block settings, it shows the field (P?iv?m??r?) under Artikkelisy?te and I can select it. So the issue seems to be in the field type Date picker, that doesn’t appear in the Fields dropdown of posts block’s element custom field.

    Hope this clarifies the issue.

    Best regards

    Thank you for the clarifications!

    I’ve managed to reproduce this behavior and noticed it occurs with every ACF type except those within the Basic class. I’ve escalated this issue to our development team for further investigation.

    Thanks for your cooperation!

    Best regards,

    Andreea
