I was wondering about this too, but ACF just automatically adds the fields to the comment form when you create them in ACF and assign them to Form > Comments
Also experiencing this, ACF 6.3.9.
for me it’s happening on a page with many, many ACF fields.
I was able to resolve the issue by removing this code (used to bring back default Custom Fields meta boxes):
// show default custom fields, even with ACF
add_filter( 'acf/settings/remove_wp_meta_box', '__return_false' );
Anyone know how to add tlexcellent’s code to functions.php or something, so that it doesn’t get overwritten with updates?
Thanks John.
I realize this isn’t part of the current ACF, and didn’t want to submit a ticket. I just saw this “Feature Request” forum and thought I’d request a feature, figured it was a place for people to share ideas. 🙂
Hints for fields I’m creating. I do a lot of work for clients and I can inline instructions for them, but once they get used to it, those instructions are just in the way.
So if beside, say a field for adding a date, there could be a little circle with a ? they can hover over / click on and it pops up a little bubble that reads “Enter the date for the start of the event”, or whatever the message would be.
So, these would be configurable in the Custom Fields editor, and viewable / hoverable in the actual Post, Page, etc. editors.
Definitely helpful.
Surprising Elliot hasn’t seen this thread and updated, or realized the issue by now.
Had this same issue and Diac’s solution worked, though it’ll overwritten with any updates.
