Hi guys,
I have the follow code:
add_action('acf/save_post', 'save_post', 20);
function save_post($post_id){
// Get the data from a field
$one = get_field('one', $post_id);
// Set the post data
$new_post = array(
'ID' => $post_id,
'post_title' => $one,
);
// Remove the hook to avoid infinite loop. Please make sure that it has
// the same priority (20)
remove_action('acf/save_post', 'save_post', 20);
// Update the post
wp_update_post( $new_post );
// Add the hook back
add_action('acf/save_post', 'save_post', 20);
}
The problem is that I have two group of fields, one for posts and other for pages. This hook, I want just that affect to posts and not to pages, but this affect to all, posts and pages. Is there any way to condition the hook?
I hope any help.
Thanks!
You need to check for the post type you want to change inside your function
add_action('acf/save_post', 'save_post', 20);
function save_post($post_id){
if (get_post_type($post_id) != 'post') {
return;
}
// Get the data from a field
$one = get_field('one', $post_id);
// Set the post data
$new_post = array(
'ID' => $post_id,
'post_title' => $one,
);
// Remove the hook to avoid infinite loop. Please make sure that it has
// the same priority (20)
remove_action('acf/save_post', 'save_post', 20);
// Update the post
wp_update_post( $new_post );
// Add the hook back
add_action('acf/save_post', 'save_post', 20);
}
That works!
Thanks John 🙂
Hi Guys, but this solution only work if i press save in the backend… Not @Heartbeat from WordPress… Any solution?!
ACF fields are not save during an autosave. Autosave is a core WP feature and no custom fields are saved or sent to the server when it is run. As far as I know there are not solutions to this, at least I have not been able to find any. see also https://support.advancedcustomfields.com/forums/topic/saving-acf-properties-when-wp-runs-auto-save-2/
soRailicious, at least, for me this solution worked. The autosave or drafts aren’t affected.
Did you tested this solution?
