Hello.

I’m not good at English, so I’m sorry if it is difficult for you to understand my English.

So please watch the “Youtube”.

“Next Scripts: Social Networks Auto Poster (SNAP)” will not work properly.

There is no problem in case of “Advanced Custom Fields”.

However, “Advanced Custom Fields PRO” does not work properly.

“Next Scripts: Social Networks Auto Poster (SNAP)” is a very important plugin.

“Advanced Custom Fields” is also a very important plugin.

So I purchased “Advanced Custom Fields PRO”.

However, it seems that there is a problem with “acf-input.min.js”.

I could not solve the problem.

It will not post correctly.

What should I do?

Can this be improved?

Please tell me.

NextScripts: Social Networks Auto-Poster Version
3.7.11
ACF Version
5.5.5
WP Version
4.7.1

Hi @luvjapanmusic

I’m not sure how NextScripts works, but it seems that plugin uses a hook that is executed when the post is saved. ACF also use this hook to process the custom field data, but it seems has a conflict with NextScripts. Could you please get in touch with their support to get more information regarding this issue?

Also, please keep in mind that modifying the core file (acf-input.min.js) is not a good thing to do.

Thanks 🙂

Hii,

I am also facing the same issue. I am using ACF Pro and SNAP Pro. Have you found any fix ?

I was facing a closer problem, every time I publish a post, it shows “Validation Error” message, and all settings in the post won’t save. I found an action registered by “NextSripts SNAP” plugin that made this conflict with ACF Pro.
Under “NextScripts SNAP” Directory, open the file “NextScripts_SNAP.php” then find this line:
add_action('publish_post', array($nxs_SNAP, 'NS_SNAP_SavePostMetaTags'));
change to:
// add_action('publish_post', array($nxs_SNAP, 'NS_SNAP_SavePostMetaTags'));

Set “NextScripts SNAP” to publish using schedule instead of “publish immediately” and set the schedule to something small, I chose 3 minutes. And all the problems went way. I hope this solves your problem as well.
