I’m trying to set a default value for a PostObject field. I can set the value just fine, but I can’t detect whether the field is filled out yet, because the acf/load_field hook doesn’t populate $field['value'] on this kind of field.
function themename_default_tracking_campaign($field) {
if(empty($field['value'])) { // $field['value'] is always NULL, even if set
$field['value'] = ['3956']; // This line always blows away the set value
}
return $field;
}
add_filter('acf/load_field/name=pardot_tracking_campaign', 'themename_default_tracking_campaign', 99999999);
I think this is just a plain old bug? In any case, I’d love to know a workaround.
Yeah, I may work on that sometime. The Dash Docset Contribution Checklist makes it crystal clear that by submitting a docset, you’re signing up to maintain it indefinitely. I’m not ready for that kind of commitment. Plus, there are currently many manual steps in the build process that I haven’t scripted yet, and that’s a time commitment itself.
I’ll be sure to post back here if I do any more with this, though!
I made one for myself today!
I just made this for myself, hope it helps you guys until someone can commit to maintaining it indefinitely!
