Home Forums ACF PRO handle file uploads Reply To: handle file uploads

  • Hi,

    first of all thank you for taking the time to answer my question. But I think, I did not explain myself well enough. The problem is not to get the file somewhere in the theme, after its saved, repeater or not. I need to hook into the moment when the file was uploaded, but BEFORE the data of the field set is stored into the database.

    In other words: I create a post, populate the acf fields and click the save post button. That’s where the mumbo jumbo should happen: Create and store a preview file, move the uploaded file to another location, where it is not accessible by the public, give the file path of the newly created preview mp3 as the new value to the former file upload field and finally save the post and all it’s meta data.

    Does that makes it somewhat clearer? Is there any hook, that I could make use of?
