Thanks again. Done that
function my_acf_save_post( $post_id ) {
global $wp_query;
$post_id = $wp_query->get_queried_object_id();
$acfDate = get_field('post_date', $post_id);
//Test if you receive the data field correctly:
//echo $acfDate;
//exit (-1);
$my_post = array();
$my_post['ID'] = $post_id;
$my_post['post_date'] = $acfDate;
$post = wp_update_post( $my_post );
if (is_wp_error($post)) {
echo 'WP ERROR: <pre>'; print_r($wp_error); echo '</pre>'; die;
}
}
add_action('acf/save_post', 'my_acf_save_post', 20);
But there seems to be no change in the behaviour of the acf-form – the post is still saved as draft – the custom date field is completed but the post’s publish details still say ‘Publish Immediately’ with today’s date…
