Hello, I have a field that I have set as a “number” inside of ACF. When I get the data using the get_fields() it returns the number fields as string numbers, not int.
Example:
token_life:”3″
first_query_quantity:”30″
next_query_quantity:”20″
Should be:
token_life:3
first_query_quantity:30
next_query_quantity:20
Yes, ACF returns number fields as strings.
Add a filter in functions.php
add_filter('acf/format_value/type=number', 'acf_number_str_to_number', 20, 3);
function acf_number_str_to_number($value, $post_id, $field) {
if (empty($value)) {
return $value;
}
$int = (int)$value;
$float = (float)$value;
if ($int == $float) {
return $int;
} else {
return $float;
}
}
You’ll need to contact the developers to change it any other way.
Thank you for your reply this is just what I needed!
