    Hi, So I changed the order of ACF fields for a specific post type.

    When I do this, these fields  disappear from  the post query constructor in WPDT 

    That being said, all previous datatables that use these fields continue to function as normal.

    The fields I left alone still appear selectable, the problem is some appear to disappear!

    I've been poking around the database and a recent backup to try and figure out what changes and why these metafields no longer appear within your wonderful plugin.  Any ideas?

    If I create a new field for that post type, it will show within WPDT.

    Hi boroondaraweb,
    Thank you for your purchase.

    Changing the position of the columns can cause the issues like you have. When you create wpdatatable the table saved ( with their own ID)  all of its "characteristics" ( number of columns, position, column type etc.) After the change the database can not read the table correctly and that is  why you can not see that columns which position is changed.
    You will need to recreate the table again with the desired order of the columns.

    Best regards.

    Kind Regards,
