    Two things. First, the fields will only show in the list if you have actually entered data in those fields inside posts and saved them. To define them alone without doing that, and they will not show up.

    Second. In selecting the Meta Key name, note a ‘gotcha’ with ACF ….

    … it makes 3 meta keys per field, like this (in this example for a field named ‘land’):

    #1 _land
    #2 field_52f0fc4334f52
    #3 land

    In our Meta Key selection list, you need to use key #3, without the underscore at the start of the key name. If you choose #1 by mistake, in the field choices you will see the name of #2.

    And so, reading my previous reply, you have chosen option #1, but you need option #3, without the underscore at the start of the key name.
