Plugin checks acf_register_block before ACF is initialized

[peXed]

Hello!

I just tried your plugin but ran into an issue. The blocks didn't get loaded, because you very first check failed.

if (! function_exists('acf_register_block')) { return; }

I guess the problem is the way i implemented ACF (I include it in the setup.php of my sage theme).

An easy fix would be, to move the check into the 'acf/init' action. Or would that break something?
Is there a recommended way to include ACF Pro into Sage, so your plugin works out of the box?

Thanks!

This is probably not due to a wrong implementation of ACF.
I've had a similar problem and it is because the function acf_register_block is only available in the PRO version. Added since version 5.8.0 so make sure to have the ACF Pro plugin ^5.8.0.

If you still find issues please provide WP + plugins versions.

Hi @luukskeur, I have the same problem. It look like the sage-acf-gutenberg-blocks.php file loaded before the acf_register_block_type function is created.

I am using Wordpress@5.7 using bedrock, ACF Pro@5.9.5 and mwdelaney/sage-acf-gutenberg-blocks@0.7

I found the problem. I required mwdelaney/sage-acf-gutenberg-blocks on the root of bedrock instead of the root of the sage theme. 😥

I seem to be having the same issue with Sage 9, despite using ACF Pro. Any recommendations on how to work around this when not using bedrock?
