Not detecting ACF Pro in Mylisting Theme #360

Closed Bruce-ST closed 3 years ago

Bruce-ST commented 3 years ago

Hi, we're using this theme https://mylistingtheme.com/ ACF pro is bundled with the theme. (you don't see it in the plugins though) When installing acf-to-rest-api it doesn't detect that ACF Pro is present, so you cannot go to the settings page. Is there anyway to enable this?

Hello,

Can you provide an information about following points:

Can you use freely the ACF Pro or you know that this theme depends on it?

In which folder is located your ACF pro plugin? Is it in any of these folders:

wp-content/plugins/advanced-custom-fields-pro/
wp-content/plugins/acf-pro/
wp-content/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/

What is the OS of your hosting?

I'm not familiar with your theme but if you can provide us it's directory tree we will be able to help easier :)

Hi Georgi,

The theme depends on ACF Pro I believe the ACF Pro plugin is located in: Is it wp-content/themes/my-listing/includes/extensions/advanced-custom-fields

We host with Siteground so Fedora

Bruce-ST commented 3 years ago

Hi Georgi,

The vendor confirmed also: The directory is includes/extensions/advanced-custom-fields/plugin Loaded in includes/extensions/advanced-custom-fields/advanced-custom-fields.php

Hello Bruce12345.

There is a check in class ACF_To_REST_API method is_plugin_installed() on line 112 :) Try to add the path of your acf.php to see what will happen. If this fix the issue then maybe @airesvsg must add a hook for adding custom paths in this check :)

Bruce-ST commented 3 years ago

Hi Georgi,

I added the path to line 112, but it doesn't work. I think it's still looking inside the plugin directory instead of in the theme directory because of $plugin or ABSPATH (?)
