 * And…. at the moment, the most important option aka “Meta Query” – disappeared
   completely. I spent 2 hours trying to figure out what was happening until I downgraded
   the plugin and everything started working again.
 * In the meantime, I have downgraded PHP, removed all other plugins, extensively
   tweaked post types and fields in ACF, etc.
 * With all the amazing unit tests, integration tests, etc, etc, and the whole testing
   thing, this is still happening.
 * I know I sound tired because I am. This has nothing to do with the author – he’s
   done his best and I really appreciate his efforts, especially since this is the
   only plugin on the market that offers something like this until it’s integrated
   into the core, which I hope will happen soon.
 * Where am I going wrong? Is it somewhere else?
 * I have faith that the author will fix this in a short time and I’m writing this
   ticket primarily so that other users don’t make the same mistake I did in the
   meantime.

 * First of all, it’s incredible how nice of a guy you are! Secondly, it’s amazing
   how quickly you’ve fixed the problem.
 * I may have been a bit harsh since the bug hit me right at the deadline, but the
   author’s response delighted me.
 * And yes, I’ve checked and now it’s working normally!
   Thanks!
