Hi all,
I’m using an acf_form with color inputs to give the front-end user some customisation options to the front-end.
After setting these colors, I save that to a specific CSS file.
I do that after submitting the acf_form.
The acf_form uses hidden input fields where the actual data is stored. The name of such an input field could be acf[field_58d90ee4eabc2].
In PHP I want to retreive the value of that input field, so this is what I do:
$new_color_header_bg = $_POST['acf[field_58d90ee4eabc2]'];
But this way the variable $new_color_header_bg stays empty.
Am I missing something here?
Maybe PHP gets confused by the [ and ] in the name, but how to resolve this.
You need to use $new_color_header_bg = $_POST['acf']['field_58d90ee4eabc2'];
John,
That’s it! Thank you.
After I posted this question I realised that all Post data is available in an array, so I was already thinking about some array ‘sniffing’ to get to the correct values.
But to be honest, I never thought of this one.
You have been very helpfull, as always.
