this is the code I got working for anyone interested…
private function display_field_selects(){
$field_group_key = 'group_5b9b435363912';
$fields = acf_get_fields($field_group_key);
echo '<form id="category_filter">';
foreach ($fields as $field => $data){
echo '<div class="category_wrapper">';
echo '<p class="field_label">'.$data['label'].'</p>';
echo '<select id="ms_'.$data['name'].'" multiple>';
foreach ($data['choices'] as $key => $value ){
echo '<option value="'.$value.'">'.$key.'</option>';
}
echo '</select>';
echo '</div>';
}
echo '</form>';
}
This pulls the correct field group data and creates a dropdown select for each field and its options. I believe it will work only on Radio and Checkboxes.
The next phase for me now is to either get the field_key automatically or create a function that can retrieve the appropriate field_group_key from a predetermined list.
Thanks John!
thanks. I’ve seen some of those before in my search and they didn’t work. There’s a new one I haven’t seen yet though. I’ll try that and let you know. Thanks again! I hope it works!
