Not sure if I should open a ticket for this yet or not.
According to the documentation, “This action allows you to hook in before or after the $_POST data has been saved, making it useful to perform additional functionality when updating a post or other WP object.”
That’s exactly what I wan to do. Problem is, it does nothing. It’s never executed.
add_action('acf/save_post', 'my_acf_save_post');
function my_acf_save_post( $post_id ) {
file_put_contents('vardump.txt', serialize($post_id));
}
Nothing is ever written to my dump file.
Using the standard WP “save_post” action hook, the ID is written to my dump file:
add_action('save_post', 'my_wp_save_post');
function my_wp_save_post( $post_id ) {
file_put_contents('vardump.txt', serialize($post_id));
}
No errors and nothing in debug log. The “acf/save_post” action hook just does nothing.
I’d like to do additional processing on $_POST data prior to saving to the DB, but I can’t even get it to write the post_id right now.
Should I report this as an official bug, or am I the only one experiencing this bizarre issue?
