Hey. I’m trying to create a preview of my front end form similar to this page.
http://www.picssel.com/playground/jquery/postPreview_05Jun13.html
My issues is that the $_POST values for the ACF fields are returning NULL.
The post title returns correctly but not the custom fields.
preview.php
<?php
echo "<p>Post Title:".$_POST["postTitle"]."</p>"; // This works
echo "<p>Post Title:".$_POST["fields[field_51dbe34b78471]"]."</p>"; // This doesn't
?>
Any suggestions on what I am missing?
Hi @markkelly1982
Always test data before asuming it exists.
Test like this:
<?php
echo '<pre>';
print_r($_POST);
echo '</pre>';
die;
?>
Hi.
Yeah I had tried that and that’s where i got the NULL return from.
Is there a function that I have to tie to my submit button to make the custom fields POST?
Perhaps the issue is the syntax error in your code.
echo "<p>Post Title:".$_POST["fields[field_51dbe34b78471]"]."</p>"; // This doesn't
should be
echo "<p>Post Title:".$_POST["fields"]['field_51dbe34b78471']."</p>"; // This doesn't
