Hi there,
I have a pre-sales question:
I am trying to enhance our water polo group site.
Parents sign their children up for a waterpolo membership and during that term register for multiple tournaments. Every time they register they have to re-enter all their kids information.
I am trying to figure out a way to store and retrieve their siblings information and pull it into woocommerce (via a form plugin) each time they sign up for a tournament. The children information will have to be populated into a checkbox or dropdown menu and attached to the order-meta.
There are plenty of plugins like gravity that can attach to the order, but I can’t seem to figure out a way to pull the data into the checkbox field. ACF seems like it might simplify the array so it can be recalled via the getfield???
Any ideas here?
Joel
Hi @joelpdavis,
Thanks for the post.
Yes ACF can help in the population of data in another field using the acf/load_field filter.
This filter helps to modify the value of a field after it is loaded from the database and before its value has been returned on the frontend.
You can have a look at this filter here: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acfload_field/
I hope this helps.
