Hi,
We have a client website that uses ACF Pro to embed a form (using the acf_form() function) to create a ‘pending’ post for a custom post type that includes an image custom field. Anyone can submit this form (not just WordPress users).
However, when a user that isn’t a logged in adds a photo, although the form is uploaded successfully, their image does not appear in the WordPress Media Library. However, you can view the image by getting the url on the image field (on the post itself).
Our client pointed this out to us as they need to find that image in the gallery to add it to another field.
We’re currently using WordPress 4.9.5 and ACF Pro 5.6.10. Deactivated all other plugins and changed the theme and the problem persists.
Does anyone have any insight on this? The code for the form is below:
<?php
acf_form_head();
acf_form(array(
'post_id' => 'new_post',
'post_title' => true,
'post_content' => true,
'updated_message' => __("Thank you - Post Submitted", 'acf'),
'submit_value' => __("Submit", 'acf'),
'return' => '/',
'fields' => array(
'field_58f74273f440c',
'field_58f74292f440d',
'field_58f7697cf01f4',
'field_58f742a0f440e',
'field_58f742b7f440f',
'field_59a93a00c446f',
'field_5abcf82ba8b4f',
),
'new_post' => array(
'post_type' => 'event',
'post_status' => 'pending'
)
?>
