have_rows does not work when having a custom block

[aglarsson]

Hi, tryed to follow the guide to create a block:
https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/blog/acf-5-8-introducing-acf-blocks-for-gutenberg/
The block shows but have_rows does only return false.

Hi @aglarsson,

I've moved your issue to "Discussions" since it's not really a technical issue related to the ACF version that's in the repository here.

What I can tell you about creating Gutenberg blocks as someone with 10+ years of experience in WordPress: it just sucks. I've never felt comfortable with it, and it takes away the simplicity that I loved WordPress for.

That said, I'd speculate that either your WP site isn't set up properly, or the tutorial missed something or explained something ambiguously. But that's pure speculation!

If you would like this fixed, you can upload a .zip file with the block files (or just the complete theme folder) either here or on some other cloud hoster, and I'll try to replicate this error. I'm sorry, but I don't really have the time to go through tutorials myself at the moment.
