Help - Ghost autosaves occurring frequently
Hi,
I am frequently getting autosaves for seemingly no reason; when I open a post in edit mode, exit it, and come back, there's often an empty autosave.
Even more weirdly, sometimes, the autosave claims my ACF-created custom field's value was either removed or added (as if it were blank before), but this custom field is usually filled unless the post is brand new. This is affecting old and new posts.
It doesn't happen all the time, but often enough to be a problem.
I'm wondering it there's something I'm not thinking about, whether this may be a known ACF issue, or if any of you could point me in the right direction.
Also, I can't seem to find a way to delete autosaves. Autosaves can be useful when someone gets logged out by WordPress due to a timeout, but I obviously don't want empty autosaves or autosaves claiming my custom field was changed...
Do you have advice or any hints for how to stop getting ghost autosaves?
