Hi @novelgroup

Well I think so we can get the post_type from the acf_form array and use that to change the content for each post type but as to me simple way is to just add a hidden field with post type value and get that in acf/pre_save_post action. I just tried this and its working for me.

First add the hidden field in acf_from and then get the value

'html_after_fields' => '<div><input type="hidden" name="my_pt" value="u_talez"></div>',

function acf_review_before_save_post($post_id) {

	if (empty($_POST['acf']))
		return;

	//form 1 
	$Post_type = $_POST['my_pt'];

	if ( $Post_type == 'cpt' ) {
		$_POST['acf']['_post_title'] = $_POST['acf']['field_577ba2a05bb33'];
		$_POST['acf']['_post_content'] = $_POST['acf']['field_577ba2b153bb51'];
	}

	//form2
	$Post_type = $_POST['my_pt2'];

	if ( $Post_type == 'pt2' ) {
		$_POST['acf']['_post_title'] = $_POST['acf']['field_577ba2a05bb33'];
		$_POST['acf']['_post_content'] = $_POST['acf']['field_577ba2b153bb51'];
	}	

	return $post_id;
}
add_action('acf/pre_save_post', 'acf_review_before_save_post', -1);
