Why can't I find the Wordpress ACF custom field value not in the database?
Problem I have a custom field of type "text" for my posts added with the ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) plugin. I am filling in a URL field like "www.test.com", but I cannot find that value anywhere in the database.
I tried 1. I am looking for the value in all tables using phpMyAdmin 2. I downloaded the .sql file looking for it, but still, I cannot find the value "www.test.com" anywhere.
What I Expected I expected the value to exist in the "wp_postmeta" table. So I'm not sure where and how this value is stored.
Any ideas how I can find and update the value through the database? Thank!

I finally figured out what had happened. phpMyAdmin did not show the last rows of the "wp_postmeta" table.
So, I reloaded the phpMyAdmin webpage and I was finally able to see the last lines of "wp_postmeta". I found the values that I updated the fields.
So, for everyone who can't see the values in the database, make sure you see the latest version of the database.
