I like the helper function here, but what if I am not registering the field groups?
is there another similar function to get the key value of the field?
I use wp_insert_post to import data into wordpress, should i use a different function. I have the same issue as you. get_fields() is empty until i manually save my post.
I don’t want to run into this issue anymore. Let me know your suggestions.
I may answered my own question here. I believe I can write a function where I pass it the name of the field and then use this get_field_objects to get the key. Thoughts?
