Hello guys and gals,

I have been trying to do this thing for a while now but cannot seem to get this one thing right. Basically i want to create a front-end form for each layout row of a ACF flexible content field. I can save values into the right fields, the problem is, that the fields of the acf_form are always empty. Here is my code:

if( have_rows('flexible_content') ):
    while ( have_rows('flexible_content') ) : the_row();
        if( get_row_layout() != '' ) {
            echo '<section class="m-'.get_row_layout().' module">';

            // Module Settings
            if( is_user_logged_in() ) {

                $row = get_row(); // get row
                unset($row['acf_fc_layout']); // only fields and values

                // settings for the fields of this layout row
                $settings = array(
                    'fields' => array_keys($row),
                    'honeypot' => false             // remove honeypot, it is not needed
                );

                acf_form( $settings );      // create the form
            }

            // Module
            vs_include_module(get_row_layout() ); // include template with some function

            echo '</section>';

            $row_counter++;
        }
    endwhile;
endif;

Do you have any idea, how i might get the values for each row into the forms? I think i am just loading the fields without the content. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers
