I am developing a feature making use of the acf_form function http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf_form/

The ‘return’ argument can be set to a URL, and you can use %post_url% to get the url for the new post (if you are creating a new post as I am).

It would be wonderful if a second placeholder was added to get the new post ID. Like %post_id% so that I could use this ID in my custom rewrite rules like:

http://mydomain.com/myroute/%post_id%/

It looks like this could be easily added into api-template.php right after line #996

$form['return'] = str_replace('%post_id%', $form['post_id'], $form['return']);

Thanks for your consideration!
