Importing only last field

[garrettboatman]

This doesn't seem to be working with the most current version of ACF. I've tested it with a few WP installs, & it looks to be Recovering the field group correctly, but only the last field in each group. The field group draft (immediately after recovering the group) shows the number of fields that should have been recovered, but if you view the draft, it only displays 1 recovered field. Also, after you publish the group, the recovered field number updates to 1(in the field group list).

Same here. The only field imported appears as #2 in the sort order, and any new field you create takes the #1, since the javascript in the browser didn't get any field #1.

Trying it on newer versions of ACF don't even import a thing.

What version of ACF was this created for?

This was created for ACF 3. I haven't tested with ACF 4 yet, I'll try to figure it out next week.

This little patch fixes fields import for ACF 4. It still doesn't properly import locations or options, but it's a start.

@dmh-kevin, just FYI, I'm not getting any change of behavior with the patch.

[dotKev]

Before the patch, I was getting the same issue you described. My php field definitions were old, so perhaps an old ACF export didn't provide all of the fields that newer exports have. I'll test more. I only tested against the content on a project where I really did loose the xml dump and database definitions and was able to retrieve all of my fields.

Please update to work with version 4

[iamntz]

@alekstrust for ACF4 you could use my little script: https://github.com/iamntz/acf-recovery

Although it doesn't have any option as ACF Recovery does, it will restore all of your fileds ;)

Enjoy!

Thanks to iamntz and dmh-kevin. It is now updated. There is an issue when attempting to edit a recovered fieldset while the PHP defined version is still active.

You guys rock.
