Advanced Custom Fields Options Page Setup

1 Views

I have been trying to create an options page with the advanced custom fields plugin and have added the following code to the theme level functions.php file: 

if( function_exists('acf_add_options_page') ) {
    acf_add_options_page('General Info');
}

However, when I refresh the wordpress admin panel, a link to the new menu option isn’t created.

Does anyone know why this is and how to resolve? I am on WordPress 4.4.2

  1. You might need to use the associative array version of the function call so you can specify a page_title as well as menu_title :

    if( function_exists('acf_add_options_page') ) {
    $args = array(
          'page_title' => 'General Info',
          'menu_title' => 'General Info',
          'icon_url' => 'dashicons-schedule'
          //other args
      );
    acf_add_options_page($args);

}

    Per usual sanity checking, you might also check that the advanced-custom-fields-pro plugin is indeed active. Also, there’s a note in that documentation page reading “This function requires at least ACF PRO version 5.0.0.” So options pages may not work on the non-pro version, if that’s related.
