Reply To: Using acf_form for multiple post_type

Thanks, Daniel. That’s really useful info which I’m sure I’ll use in the future.

However, right now I’m trying to do this through separate forms. That is, I have multiple forms on my site but they each update a different post-type.

This is in my functions.php:

// ACF SAVE NEW POST

function my_pre_save_post( $post_id )
{
    // Create a new post
    $post = array(
        'post_status'  => 'publish' ,
        'post_title'  => $_POST['fields']['field_52d978ea24ac7'],
        'post_type'  => 'location' ,
    );  
 
    // insert the post
    $post_id = wp_insert_post( $post ); 
 
    // update $_POST['return']
    $_POST['return'] = add_query_arg( array('post_id' => $post_id), $_POST['return'] );    
 
    // return the new ID
    return $post_id;
}
 
add_filter('acf/pre_save_post' , 'my_pre_save_post' );

This makes sense and works perfectly for one form — but if I add a second form to update a second post type, it doesn’t work. What do I need to modify so that I can have more than one form?

Cheers,
Enrico
