Hi John, sorry for the late reply as I just saw your email today.
Now I have tried to make something with 2 plugins (JetEngine and Jet Smart Filters from CrocoBlocks) and they are nice, but still I need more features which aren’t available with this. Though by using then now I have more idea of CPT. Plus now I have a live example of my requirement to share with you. Please have a look.
So our test website is: https://wordpress-490485-2085818.cloudwaysapps.com/
– Aim is to built a website and then turn in into a Mobile app.
Here please open AVAILABLE TAXI page : https://wordpress-490485-2085818.cloudwaysapps.com/page-1-available/
You will see that there are entries which are being generated with a front end form (https://wordpress-490485-2085818.cloudwaysapps.com/available-taxi-form-submission/) which is also from jet engine (Jet Engine Form Builder).
Plus on AVAILABLE page I have also added filters like:
1. Taxi from:
2. Taxi to:
3. Car model:
4th is just the remove option that appears when I choose any filter (good stuff)
Now features which I can’t get from CrocoBlock is that I for the sake of getting minimum requirement need:
A date filter (more important) I need a date filter, not date range, like if you see the AVAILABLE page (https://wordpress-490485-2085818.cloudwaysapps.com/page-1-available/) I have Date: in all entries. I want to filter these listing with DATE FIELD option.
And
A Multi Select Dropdown in form, example expedia.com, not as fancy as their but like when I search a city like Jaipur, then I just need to type J or JAI and I get related options in form.
Its a important feature but I can live without it.
Now date field option is available with JET Smart filter but its not working properly and the team at CrocoBlocks have accepted it as a Bug.
So, I can get what I want with ACF?
Regards
Jatin Chhabra
