I needed to export all existing Posts from one site to the new site. The old posts had all content in the_content() so the import sent data there in new posts. I need to move the content out of the default WYSIWYG and more it into a content block inside my ‘One Column’ block builder. I can do this no problem when the One Column has been triggered and saved with some holder text, but I am doing that manually. How can I trigger that One Column to trigger and save so I can then run an update.
while ( have_rows('page_builder') ) : the_row();
if( get_row_layout() == 'one_column' ): // Single Column
/// This works only when one_column has already been created. I am starting from scratch.
update_field('field_60745782d2943', get_the_content());
endif;
endwhile;
What needs to happen to create a row layout section? I see add_action(), add_row(), update_sub_field()…. I have now wrapped myself in knots!
When the field “page_builder: does not exist you need to create it.
$value = array(
// nested array for each row you want to create
array(
// field key => value pairs for row
'acf_fc_layout' => 'one_column',
'field_60745782d2943' => get_the_content();
)
)
update_field('field_key_of_flex_field', $value, $post_id)
Thank you! It was the acf_fc_layout call I was missing!
