    Hello,
    My understanding of this is when I created a group of fields in ACF, one with a field name like acf_commercial_product, which is a checkbox, and I want to search for this using a form in S&F Pro, I drag a Post Meta down in S&F, select “Choice” tab and I should find acf_commercial_product in the Meta Key dropdown.

    I am not seeing any of my acf_ fields listed for this group. What is odd, another group of fields I created a month ago, the field names are shown in the S&F dropdown.

    Why are the fields showing in one S&F form and not the other? What am I missing? I have 9 custom fields in this one group and none appear in S&F.

    Thank you.

    Have you added data in to any posts with those fields? They will not appear until you do.

    Yes. I use the acf fields for products Woocommerce. I added a couple of products with data in those fields. My issue is the acf_ variables/fields are not showing in the backend of S&F so I cannot even create a search form with the acf_ fields.

    Trevor, sorry for the delay. I have been experimenting with this all morning. Finally, I removed a lot of plugins, another “search” plugin I don’t remember having, and a few others that were deactivated but still occupying space. I cleared the cache, logged off and on again. I see my acf fields in S&F now. Now I just need to create a results page. So far, your plugin is working.

    Thank you!
    Mike
