Hi

after u create front end form pls put following function in your function.php, add the required filed to post

add_filter(‘acf/pre_save_post’ , ‘my_pre_save_post’ );
function my_pre_save_post( $post_id ) {
// check if this is to be a new post
if( $post_id != ‘new’ ) {
return $post_id;
}

$field = $_POST[‘fields’];
$post_title = $_POST[‘fullname’];
$post_content = $field[‘edit_test2’];
$post = array(
‘post_status’ => ‘draft’ ,
‘post_title’ => $post_title,
‘post_content’ => $post_content,
‘post_type’ => ‘page’

);
$newpost_id=wp_insert_post($post);
if($newpost_id!=0)
{

$fullname=$_POST[‘fullname’];
$address=$_POST[‘address’];
add_post_meta($newpost_id,’FullName’, $fullname);
add_post_meta($newpost_id, ‘address’, $address);
}
}
