Hi
i have come across this code in order to search specific ACF field/fields in admin posts:
https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/16637/how-to-filter-post-listing-in-wp-dashboard-posts-listing-using-a-custom-field/16641#16641
i have inserted the code into my function.php and works fine
only problem with it that it is displaying all ACF fields in the drop down list which i want to display only some specific fields such as: source, source author, translated by and so on.
can anyone help modify the code as per my needs?
Instead of doing the query to get a list of all avialble fields, construct an array with the field that you want to search.
$fields = array(
'field_1',
'field_2',
'field_3',
'field_4',
'etc...'
);
then alter the code used to display the field to use this new array
foreach ($fields as $field) {
printf('<option value="%s"%s>%s</option>', $field, $field == $current? ' selected="selected"':'', $field);
}

@hube2 can we implement the same in the users. I am using Ultimate membership plugin. so in that we get separate users tab which shows all the uses present. so i wan this feature to be used over there as well. can you help me out how and what will the changes that will take place in the above code.
please i am stuck on this for a while now.
Thank you
I don’t have the answer to that. I do not know if the same filters run on the user admin page.
