Creating Front End Post with Flexible Content
-
Hi I have recently purchased the ACF Pro.
I am managed to create the Front End Page for my user to contribute article with acf_form.
Initially my intention was to use Page Builder as WYSIWYG editor. However after reading for a while unfortunately both ACF and Page Builder is not compatible with each other. So I replaced WYSIWYG editor with Flexible Content.
However whenever I submitted an article. The content is always blank.
I follow the tutorial at thestizmedia to get my form.
Here is the code at my function.php
add_filter('acf/pre_save_post' , 'tsm_do_pre_save_post' ); function tsm_do_pre_save_post( $post_id ) { // Bail if not logged in or not able to post if ( ! ( is_user_logged_in() || current_user_can('publish_posts') ) ) { return; } // check if this is to be a new post if( $post_id != 'new' ) { return $post_id; } // Create a new post $post = array( 'post_type' => 'post', // Your post type ( post, page, custom post type ) 'post_status' => 'publish', // (publish, draft, private, etc.) 'post_title' => wp_strip_all_tags($_POST['acf']['field_55e95e746593e']), // Post Title ACF field key 'post_content' => $_POST['acf']['field_55efc8e15d926'], // Post Content ACF field key ); // insert the post $post_id = wp_insert_post( $post ); // Save the fields to the post do_action( 'acf/save_post' , $post_id ); return $post_id; } add_action( 'acf/save_post', 'tsm_save_image_field_to_featured_image', 10 ); function tsm_save_image_field_to_featured_image( $post_id ) { // Bail if not logged in or not able to post if ( ! ( is_user_logged_in() || current_user_can('publish_posts') ) ) { return; } // Bail early if no ACF data if( empty($_POST['acf']) ) { return; } // ACF image field key $image = $_POST['acf']['field_54dfcd4278d63']; // Bail if image field is empty if ( empty($image) ) { return; } // Add the value which is the image ID to the _thumbnail_id meta data for the current post add_post_meta( $post_id, '_thumbnail_id', $image ); }This is my code at the page.php
<?php acf_form_head(); ?> <div class="eleven columns "> <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> <div id="content" > <article class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"> <div class="title"> <h2><a href="<?php the_permalink() ?>" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to <?php the_title(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a></h2> </div> </article> </div> <?php endwhile; endif; ?> </div> <div class="five columns "> <?php if ( function_exists('dynamic_sidebar') && dynamic_sidebar('Menu Search') ) : else : endif;?> </div> <div class="sixteen columns "> <article class="post" id="post-<?php the_ID(); ?>"> <div class="entry create-article-adjustor"> <?php if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : the_post(); ?> <?php if ( ! ( is_user_logged_in()|| current_user_can('publish_posts') ) ) { echo '<p>You must be a registered author to post.</p>'; return; } $new_post = array( 'post_id' => 'new', // Create a new post // PUT IN YOUR OWN FIELD GROUP ID(s) 'field_groups' => array(1489), // Create post field group ID(s) 'form' => true, 'return' => '%post_url%', // Redirect to new post url 'html_before_fields' => '', 'html_after_fields' => '', 'submit_value' => 'Submit Post', 'updated_message' => 'Saved!' ); acf_form( $new_post ); ?> <?php endwhile; endif; ?> </div> </article> </div>This is the screenshot of the back-end field group with field key.
When I replace ‘post_content’ => $_POST[‘acf’][‘field_55e95e8b6593f’] with ‘post_content’ => $_POST[‘acf’][‘field_55efc8e15d926’] it works but when I used Flexible content it doesn’t.
