Hi,

I am trying to add a new field to the User form using acf_add_local_field() but it does not seem to be working. Can someone please help me check my code to figure out why? This is my first time doing this.

I have already echo the $post_id, $videoId and $postTitle so I know they are working. The group key, title and location information have been copied from an export.

// Create User Video Field
function new_video_hook( $post_id ) {
		// Get Video ID
		$videoId = get_video_ID($post_id);
		$postTitle = get_the_title($post_id);

		if(function_exists('acf_add_local_field_group')) {
			acf_add_local_field_group(array(
				'key' => 'group_5f50fee38ca1b',
				'title' => 'Additional User Fields',
				'location' => array (
					array (
						array (
							'param' => 'user_form',
							'operator' => '==',
							'value' => 'all',
						),
					),
				),
			));
			acf_add_local_field(array(
				'key'    => 'field_vimeovid_' . $videoId . $post_id,
				'label'  => $postTitle . ' Video Progress',
				'name'   => $videoId . '_video_progress',
				'type'   => 'text',
				'parent' => 'group_5f50fee38ca1b',
			));	

			// Update post status
			wpse001_set_admin_notice(get_current_user_id(), 'New user custom field added.', 'success');
		}
}
add_action('acf/save_post',  'new_video_hook', 20);

Many thanks!
