How can I disable the js alert on an acf_form in the frontend.

The alert occurs when you edit some fields and then decide to navigate away.

Figured it out myself:

jQuery(document).ready(function()
{
	jQuery(window).off("beforeunload", null);
});

.

had same issue – your solution didn’t work for me, E’s solution did. So I just want you to know about it incase. I’m using ACF5Pro.

I put this in as last script before /body. Though I suppose it only has to be below the ACF scripts. I’m using acf_form() w/o the form component to load a repeater field, and navigating away after changes to that field were causing that popup to appear. But no now. 🙂

<script>
(function($) {
  $(document).ready(function() {
    // disable the ACF js navigate away pop up
    acf.unload.active = false;
  });
})(jQuery);
</script>
</body>
