I was reviewing a previous post (closed) regarding giving users the ability to change the name of a tab for clarity: https://support.advancedcustomfields.com/forums/topic/dynamically-generated-acf-tab-names/
John’s code works great, but unfortunately, it applies to all tabs and I’m confused how to target individual tabs directly. Is there a way to target each tab by it’s key and change the label?
Ah, nevermind, found another post and between the two, here’s the solution to target the key:
add_filter('acf/prepare_field/key=field_key', 'custom_tab_format', 20);
function custom_tab_format($field) {
if(get_field('this_field', $post->ID)) {
$field['label'] = get_field('this_field', $post->ID);
}
return $field; }
If you want to manage more than one tab, I used a unique function name for each instance:
add_filter('acf/prepare_field/key=field_key', 'custom_tab_format', 20);
function custom_tab_format($field) {
if(get_field('this_field', $post->ID)) {
$field['label'] = get_field('this_field', $post->ID);
}
return $field; }
add_filter('acf/prepare_field/key=field_key', 'custom_tab_format_two', 20);
function custom_tab_format_two($field) {
if(get_field('this_field', $post->ID)) {
$field['label'] = get_field('this_field', $post->ID);
}
return $field; }
Hopefully this is helpful to others.
