I’m trying to add a field to the user location.
When I add a condition to only show for a certain role, the fields don’t show up when I chose the role.
Example:
I have a post type called “Location” and I’m trying to add the Post Object field for Location to the User form. This works with no conditions but when I add a user role condition to only show the field for Admin level, the field doesn’t show up when I change the role select to Admin.
Unless it works the other way around where the role condition is based on the viewing user’s permissions.
Hopefully it’s what I originally thought!
Thanks for an amazing plugin.
It works the second way, it’s based on the currently logged in user, that being you.
Actually, I just did some testing. It seems to work in the first way, based on the role of the user you are creating.
I’m currently an administrator and I set a field for User Location to only show up with the following conditions:
User Form is equal to Add / Edit AND
User Role is equal to Administrator
The User Location field does not show up.
When I change the second condition to be:
User Role is equal to Subscriber
The field shows up
This is because the default level when creating a new user is Subscriber.
There just doesn’t seem to be any dynamic logic for when that field changes. Which would be awesome. I can currently function with removing the second condition completely as there are only Admins and Authors.
Hi guys
This is all correct.
Ill have a look at adding in dynamic logic to update the field’s when changing the role
I’m having the same problem in the latest ACF PRO (5.5.14).
When will (role-based) dynamic logic be implemented to the User Add form?
I’m having the same problem in the latest ACF PRO (5.6.10).
