Yes, for the moment i get the parent field from root group and i go through its children :
add_filter( 'acf/get_fields', 'acf_get_fields', 10, 2 );
function acf_get_fields( $fields, $parent ) {
if ( $parent['key'] === 'group1' ) {
foreach ( $fields as &$field ) {
if ( $field['name'] === 'my_parent_field' ) {
foreach ( $field['sub_fields'] as $k => &$sub_field ) {
if ( $sub_field['name'] === 'my_target_field' ) {
// my code
}
}
}
}
}
return $fields;
}
But it would be great if acf_get_field_ancestors works with clone fields 🙂
Sadly, i looked at the source code and apparently, it could takes a lot of work.
