Hi, How do I target a particular fields in a particular form? Currently this field is in my Edit Profile form. I have a Sign Up form that has the same input field. I want to make the field not required only on that Edit Profile form. Below is what I have, I did some digging and I found using is_page() would work but when I go to my sign up form the field is missing.

add_filter('acf/load_field/name=employers_name', 'my_acf_load_employers_name');
function my_acf_load_employers_name( $field ) {

  	if( is_page('edit-profile') ) {
  		// make required
    	$field['required'] = false;
    	// return
    	return $field;
  	}
}

You are only returning the field if you change the setting. You need to always return the field

add_filter('acf/load_field/name=employers_name', 'my_acf_load_employers_name');
function my_acf_load_employers_name( $field ) {

  	if( is_page('edit-profile') ) {
  		// make required
    	$field['required'] = false;
  	}
    	// return
    	return $field;
}
