Hi @jamescarter4
I’m not sure how your current setup is, so I’ll assume that the messages are stored as a custom post type called “message”. With this setup, you need to update the post author of the newly created messages with the companies ID.
It should be something like this:
function my_acf_save_post_change_author( $post_id ) {
// Get the company's user ID (depends on how you set it)
$company_id = 2;
// Only do this if posted from front end
if( !is_admin() ){
// Get the post object
$the_post = get_post($post_id);
// Check the post type
if( $the_post->post_type == 'message' ){
// Set the data you want to update
$my_post = array(
'ID' => $post_id,
'post_author' => $company_id,
);
// Remove action to avoid infinite loop
remove_action('acf/save_post', 'my_acf_save_post_change_author', 20);
// Update the post into the database
wp_update_post( $my_post );
// Add the action back
add_action('acf/save_post', 'my_acf_save_post_change_author', 20);
}
}
}
// run after ACF saves the $_POST['acf'] data
add_action('acf/save_post', 'my_acf_save_post_change_author', 20);
After that you can query it like this:
$args = array( 'post_type'=>'message','author'=>$user );
I hope this helps 🙂
