Hi @ingwine

I’m not sure how WP User Frontend Pro works, but I believe you can do it like this:

function flexible_field_form( $form_id, $post_id, $form_settings) {

    $new_post = array(
        // PUT IN YOUR OWN FIELD GROUP ID(s)
        'field_groups'       => array(52), // Create post field group ID(s)
        'form' => false
    );
    acf_form( $new_post );

    // insert the post
    $post_id = wp_insert_post( $post );
    $field_key = "field_1234567890";
    $posted_flexible = $_POST["acf"][$field_key];
    
    $value =  (get_field($field_key) ? get_field($field_key) : array());
    foreach($posted_flexible as $layout){
        $value[] = array("sub_field_1" => $layout['field_1111111111'], "sub_field_2" => $layout['field_2222222222'], "acf_fc_layout" => $layout["acf_fc_layout"]);
    }
    update_field( $field_key, $value, $post_id );
}

add_action( 'flexible_field_hook', 'flexible_field_form', 10, 3 );

When you post some Data from ACF form, you can get them using $_POST["acf"].

I hope this makes sense.
