Hey HimSelf, thanks for your help on this.
Sorry, but I don’t know how to add a $term to the custom field. Some of the articles I’ve viewed show a Taxonomy Term option in the Field Type dropdown, but my version of ACF does not have that option (see attached screencapture).
I did notice a ‘Create Terms’ toggle at the bottom of that screenshot, but cannot find documentation on how to use it. Any advice?
Thank you again for your reply. I really appreciate your help.
