Is it possible to modify ACF forms in php so the front-end form field renders as a div instead of a form field?
I want specific fields to be locked and uneditable in the front end.
Is it possible?
Yes. You could create an acf/prepare_field filter https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf-prepare_field/.
In this filter you could convert the field from whatever type of field it is into a message field to show the value of the field as a the message.
Alternately, for some type of fields, you can disable them or make them read only.
Yes!
This seems to be the key to what im looking for!
I am having an issue with it though,
“Message” fields use a “message” value to hold what they display.
I cant figure out how to pass the previous value into the “message”.
Nevermind!
This actually worked perfectly
I accidently used load_value instead of prepare_field, leftover from my previous attempts.
