Hi @synergywp

I am confused.
What version of ACF are you using? v4 or v5(PRO)?

If you are using ACF PRO, you have used the wrong acf_form documentation. Please note the documentation versions: http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf_form/

In short, there are a few issues with your code so PLEASE do lots of debugging line by line to make sure your code is actually running.

1. The args …

'post_id' => 'new_post',
							'new_post' => array(
						        'post_status' => 'draft',
						        'post_type'  => $cpt,
						        //'post_title' => 'new listing'
							),

… are only available in ACF5 (ACF PRO).

2.

Your code:

if( $post_id != 'new' ) {
	        return $post_id;
	    }

… will most likely always return, because your post_id is ‘new_post’, not ‘new’.

PLEASE debug your code line by line to ensure it is running and all variables are correct. Also debug the $GLOBALS vs $_POST array to see what data is available.

Thanks
