Hi, I’ve been testing a lot, searching, and nothing worked so I hope here can help me.
I followed the documentation about how to post from frontend with ACF fields, I finally can see the form at frontend, but never works the submit button.
I tested with other templates, desactivating other plugins, but nothing worked.
I’m using v4 of ACF and last version of wordpress.
Any ideas? Do I need the pro version to get it work? If is this the case, why can I show the form but not work the submit button??
I added the code in the theme files and in the functions.php, but it’s the functions.php inside the theme folder or in the wp-includes? I tried in the last one but breaks the website.
If someone can help me I will be so happy, I’ve been toons of hours trying to fix it by myself but nothing worked.
Thanks for your time.
from my themes/evolve/functions.php
add_filter('acf/pre_save_post' , 'my_pre_save_post' );
function my_pre_save_post( $post_id ) {
// bail early if not a new post
if( $post_id !== 'new_post' ) {
return $post_id;
}
// vars
$title = $_POST['fields']['post_title'];
$content = $_POST['fields']['post_content'];
// Create a new post
$post = array(
'post_status' => 'publish',
'post_type' => 'prueba',
'post_title' => $title,
'post_content' => $content
);
// insert the post
$post_id = wp_insert_post( $post );
// return the new ID
return $post_id;
}
prueba is the name of my custom post type
from my single-custom.php
<?php acf_form_head(); ?>
<?php get_header(); ?>
<div id="primary">
<div id="content" role="main">
<?php /* The loop */ ?>
<?php while ( have_posts() ) : the_post(); ?>
<?php acf_form(array(
'post_id' => 'new_post',
'field_groups' => array( 577 )); ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</div><!-- #content -->
</div><!-- #primary -->
<?php get_sidebar(); ?>
<?php get_footer(); ?>
the name of the field for the title is post_title and for the content post_content, only tried this for if was a problem of compatibility with other fields, but anyway this not working anyway, how I said, it shows the form but the button doesn’t do anything.
577 is the ID of my ACF group fields.
I’ve solved it thanks anyway.
