I need to send an email when updating the value of a select created using the ACF on a specific page.
Ex: Name | Select (0-waiting, 1-approved, 2-validated).
In my research, I found this alternative: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf-update_value/
When executing the function, I can change the return value, but I need to capture the field name to compose the email message.
Could you help me with that question?
function my_acf_update_value( $value, $post_id, $field ) {
if($value==0){
/*$msg = "Name = {$name} ";
$headers = array('Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8');
wp_mail( '[email protected]', 'Title', $msg, $headers );
*/
return 2;
} else {
return $value;
}
}
add_filter('acf/update_value/key=field_5bf41f9897b45', 'my_acf_update_value', 117, 4);
If I well understand, the “Name” comes from a field filled by the user in the same time he changes the value.
I don’t know what is your trigger (a classic save button ? an Ajax request ?), but I presume that you can first use the “acf_update_value” filter to register the new Name, after what you can call your current custom function and bring the Name with get_field('name', $post_id). ($post_id is already set as a parameter in your custom function).
When using the Get_field it returns me all, I need to get a specific. To facilitate, Please see the image.
When you click Refresh, I will take the value of the select and make a condition (if it equals such a thing), sends an email. However, I need to get the specific data, not all of it.
When updating the contact “Marcus Vinicius ” to “authorize “, I want to send an email to him and need to capture the field email of the loop that it belongs to.
