Greetings,<\/p>\n

After upgrading ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) to version 5.3.3.2 (on WP version 4.4.1 and TEC 4.0.5) the relationship fields no longer store values. For example, I have a relationship field to allow me to select from a custom Sponsors post type to apply those sponsors to specific events and since the update that field remains blank no matter what I do.<\/p>\n

I reached out to ACF and they did find the issue, but said it is on TEC’s end…here is the response from Elliot from ACF:<\/p>\n

I’ve just had the exact same issue reported, the good news is I found the issue!<\/p>\n

The events plugin is registering a version of Select2 (JS library) which is quite old.
\nI believe this is what is causing the issue.
\nIf you look at the HTML, each selection is missing a hidden input, this also explains why selecting 1 value works, but not 2 or more.<\/p>\n

The solution is to prevent the event plugin from registering Select2 library.
\nI would contact the Event plugin devs, or jump on google and find an existing thread for how to prevent the plugin from including Select2 due to a conflict in versions<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Is this something that should be looked in to on your end or something that I should seek a solution specific to my site? As I’ve seen a lot of previous threads about ACF (including relationship-related issues) I think it would be best to include a fix in the plugin itself. For now, I have rolled back ACF to version 5.3 and it is working again.<\/p>\n

Any thoughts?<\/p>\n

Thanks,<\/p>\n
