Form submission saving as (no-name)

When I fill out a form on the frontend then the data gets captures and I can view it from Frontend Admin for ACF > Submissions, however when I go to the custom posts it saves as (no-name) and the fields are all blank.

I’ve setup

• New Post Type: Cars
• New Taxonomy: Brands

Custom fields are:

• Make
• Model

I’m fairly new to ACF so can someone advise as to what I’m doing wrong?

I have no idea how “Frontend Admin for ACF” works, that is a separate plugin and not from the developers of ACF. You should contact the author of that plugin.

However, I do know that if you have a front then form in ACF that creates a new post then in order for the post to have a title you must set the “post_title” argument for acf_form() to true.
