Hello, friends!
Please tell me how to transfer the value of two or three fields from the form on the front-end to the ‘post_title’?
In “Group1” I have 3 fields: Title (title), Field1 (field1), Field2 (field2)
I would like to make such a title, for example –
‘post_title’ => Title + Field1 + Field2
Thank you
What kind of fields are they? Text fields?
Where are the fields located in the dashboard?
<?php
$title = get_field('title');
$field1 = get_field('field1');
$field2 = get_field('field2');
?>
<h1 class="post-title"><?php echo $title $field1 $field2; ?></h1>
Text fields from front end form, Ben.
How do I combine multiple fields in the title? What is the syntax for concatenate?
‘post_title’ => $_POST[‘acf’][‘field_5481ab2cdda13’] [‘field_54814faa2f090’], //NOT work
For example of title- NAME+CITY+DATE –> DMITRY::MOSCOW::22.11.2014 (:: – separator).
Help me, plz
My front-end form –
<?php
/**
* Template Name: Page with ACF form
*/
acf_form_head();
get_header();
the_post();
?>
<div id="primary">
<div id="content" role="main">
<?php
$args = array(
'post_id' => 'new',
'field_groups' => array( 5 ),
'updated_message' => 'Up the post!'
);
acf_form( $args );
?>
?>
</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #primary -->
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
Plugin –
/**
* ACF Frontend Form
*/
function my_pre_save_post( $post_id )
{
// check if this is to be a new post
if( $post_id != 'new' )
{
return $post_id;
}
// Create a new post
$post = array(
'post_status' => 'publish' ,
'post_title' => $_POST['acf']['field_5481ab2cdda13'],
'post_type' => 'testimonials' ,
'post_category'=>array(4),
);
// insert the post
$post_id = wp_insert_post( $post );
// update $_POST['return']
$_POST['return'] = add_query_arg( array('post_id' => $post_id), $_POST['return'] );
// return the new ID
return $post_id;
}
add_filter('acf/pre_save_post' , 'my_pre_save_post' );
Hi @Dmitry Averin
To concatinate strings, you do so like this:
$string = 'foo' . 'bar'
;
So ACF $_POST data would look like:
'post_title' => $_POST['acf']['field_5481ab2cdda13'] . ' ' . $_POST['acf']['field_5481ab2cdda14'],
Hope that helps
