Hi @Elliot,
stupid mistake !
So I got the 2 below hooks / filters below running fine, each returning the proper member_lastname & member_firstname value, one after the other, when I ‘publish the field set.
At this point the WP_post /Post is created, but needs to be updated with the proper values, ie.
– for the post_name a slug => member_firstname.”-“.member_firstname;
– for the post_title => member_firstname.” “.member_firstname;

add_filter('acf/update_value/name=member_lastname', 'my_acf_update_value', 10, 3);
add_filter('acf/update_value/name=member_firstname', 'my_acf_update_value', 10, 3);

So :
– how do I keep both values from the previous hooks, so that I can use them to build both the above variables ?
– do I need to build yet another hook to update the wp_post table, & “where / when” should this happen ? I guess when ACF completes the publishing / update of the wp_postmeta table ?

Agin, many thanks for your help on this
