Hi,

with acf_form I try to save a text field and a file into my custom post type. Unfortunately in vain. The file is not saved.

However, the text field (name) is saved.

My code:

                $fields = array(
                    'field_5e79ce9fce16f', // name
                    'field_5e79deb62bcea' // file
                );
                acf_form(array(
                    'post_id'           => 'new_post',
                    'new_post'          => array(
                        'post_type'     => 'usertasks',
                        'post_status'   => 'publish',
                        'post_title'    => get_the_title( $post->post_parent ) . ' - ' . get_the_title(),
                    ),
                    'uploader'          => 'basic',
                    'fields'            => $fields,
                    'submit_value'      => 'Eintrag speichern',
                    'updated_message'   => 'Eintrag wurde gespeichert',
                    'html_after_fields' => '<input type="hidden" name="acf[field_5e79d81e6e229]" value="'.get_the_ID().'"/>',
                ));

Attached a screenshot of my ACF fields.

Maybe someone has an idea why the file is not saved?

Many Thanks
André

I still haven’t made it.

If I var_dump the POST variable, the file (test.pdf) also appears. But is still not saved. But the name (Dummy Name) does.

Am I missing anything?

function UserTaskPreSave( $post_id ) {
    var_dump($_POST);
    exit();
}
add_action( 'acf/save_post', 'UserTaskPreSave');

array(7) {
  ["_acf_screen"]=>
  string(8) "acf_form"
  ["_acf_post_id"]=>
  string(8) "new_post"
  ["_acf_validation"]=>
  string(1) "1"

The error has been found – at least it is working now.

I apparently had to add the “form_attributes / enctype”.

'form_attributes' => array(
'enctype' => 'multipart/form-data',
)

Do you know that? Is this documented? I hadn’t seen that.
