 * Hi,
 * in the documentation there is a Force Sync function.
    [https://www.acf-extended.com/features/field-groups/force-sync](https://www.acf-extended.com/features/field-groups/force-sync)
 * I tried to activate this as described by pasting the code into functions.php (
   i tried both variants), but the function has no effect/does not work as described(
   i still have to sync the json changes manually, nothing is synced automatically),
   and also there is no module called Force Sync listed in the ACFE settings table
   as described. Is this whole feature only available in the PRO version, or am 
   i missing something here?

 * Hello,
 * Thanks for the feedback!
 * Yes, the [Force Sync](https://www.acf-extended.com/features/field-groups/force-sync)
   feature is only available in the Pro version. This is why there is a “Pro” label
   on the documentation page for that feature. If you’re using the free version,
   it won’t work.
 * Have a nice day!
 * Regards.
