When I save a select option it gets written in the DB ok, but when I go back to that entry my choice is not selected (always the first). I got the $field variable printed out and I got the following. Any solutions?
(
[key] => field_51e6df6688137
[label] => Service Type
[name] => fields[field_51e6df6688137]
[_name] => service
[type] => select
[order_no] => 0
[instructions] =>
[required] => 1
[id] => acf-field-servico
[class] => select
[conditional_logic] => Array
(
[status] => 0
[rules] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[field] => null
[operator] => ==
)
)
[allorany] => all
)
[choices] => Array
(
[a] => a
[b] => b
[c] => c
)
[default_value] =>
[allow_null] => 0
[multiple] => 0
[field_group] => 531
[value] => Array
(
[0] => 28
)
)
I’m using a, b and c as choices to make sure they’re ok. Seems like [value] should be my choice to comply with this code on select.php:136:
$selected = in_array($key, $field['value']) ? 'selected="selected"' : '';
Have you ever managed to solve this one? I’m having the same issue after inserting values in the post_meta by hand
Is the same for me. I use the selector to list font-families to apply them in CSS. I can make a selection but If I come back to settings panel and change other configuration (other field), the font-family fiels is overwritten with the first option.
Some solution? I’m using ACF PRO 5.1.3 Pro in WP 4.0
Yea, having the same problem. Been strugeling with a work-around, but no solution so far.
Anyone else?
It’s related with some chracters, probable “,” or spaces…, but I need to use spaces or commas…, I dont know how to get the label name, in the label its like there is no problems with special characters
I’m using this function to convert the string and use the special chracters which the dropdown selector is having problems. Hope this can be fixed soon:
function select_wsafe_font($fs) {
if ($fs == "arial_bla") $fs = "'Arial Black', sans-serif";
if ($fs == "arial_hel") $fs = "Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif";
if ($fs == "centh_got") $fs = "Century Gothic, sans-serif";
if ($fs == "couri_new") $fs = "'Courier New', Courier, monospace";
if ($fs == "georgia") $fs = "Georgia, Serif";
if ($fs == "impact") $fs = "Impact, Charcoal, sans-serif";
if ($fs == "lucid_san") $fs = "'Lucida Sans Unicode', 'Lucida Grande', sans-serif";
if ($fs == "palatino") $fs = "'Palatino Linotype', 'Book Antiqua', Palatino, serif";
if ($fs == "tahoma") $fs = "Tahoma, Geneva, sans-serif";
if ($fs == "times_new") $fs = "'Times New Roman', Times, serif";
if ($fs == "trebuc_ms") $fs = "'Trebuchet MS', Helvetica, sans-serif";
if ($fs == "verdana") $fs = "Verdana, Geneva, sans-serif";
// Google Fonts
echo $fs;
} // END Selector Web Safe Font
I am having a similar issue. I have a select field with 60 or so values (with separate labels / values). When I add in a new value in the select field, and go to a page that already has a value set in the select field, it shows as blank (the first option in the select box). At this point, in the Database it is still correct. Once I click Update/Publish, it then incorrectly changes it to the first value/blank value.
