Get_values not working to auto-populate field choices

[michelemeek]

The get_values function does not seem to be working to auto-populate the field options. I hope you can help. See screenshot for comparison of how I have it setup using your plugin and through ACF.

Hi,

Unfortunately the ACF get_values function will only work within a post/page context. That means, it will likely get the values only if the search is placed within the post/page content field. I’m not sure why it works like that, but there is apparently no solution for that yet. I have looked through all ACF functions, all of their API and documentation, but found nothing, unfortunately. The best way in this case is to manually enter the values.
