Description

Hi,

I was using ACF 5.8.0-beta1 and ran into the problem of Gutenberg not saving ACF fields outside of Gutenberg, so I updated to beta2. Now I run into the issue that the blocks within the Gutenberg editor aren't being displayed anymore. They become invisible for some reason. Anyone else having this issue or is it just me?

Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue with ACF 5.8.0-beta2 and Gutenberg, comparing the behavior with beta1. Investigate why ACF blocks are invisible in the Gutenberg editor; done means the blocks are displayed again and the reported Gutenberg field-saving behavior remains addressed.
