Thank you, I did end up using integers in my ultimate solution. However, I couldn’t get add_row to work, my ultimate solution was the following:
function assign_internal_writer_callback($request)
{
$parameters = $request->get_params();
$outline_task = $parameters['outline_task']; //ID for Task associated with Stage Two
$write_task = $parameters['write_task']; //ID for Task associated with Stage Five
$user = $parameters['user']; //User ID
$project_set = $parameters['project_set']; //Project Set ID
if ($outline_task != '' && $write_task != '' && $user != '' && $project_set != '') {
update_post_meta($outline_task, 'user', $user);
update_post_meta($write_task, 'user', $user);
$team_size = get_term_meta($project_set, 'project_set_campaign_team');
$new_team_size = strval(intval($team_size[0] + 1));
//Need to follow this convention for field keys in order for them to display in UI
$user_field_key = '_project_set_campaign_team_' . $team_size[0] . '_user';
$role_field_key = '_project_set_campaign_team_' . $team_size[0] . '_role';
$user_key = 'project_set_campaign_team_' . $team_size[0] . '_user';
$role_key = 'project_set_campaign_team_' . $team_size[0] . '_role';
update_term_meta($project_set, 'project_set_campaign_team', $new_team_size); //This meta field holds the number of rows in the repeater, needs to be updated +1 to display in UI
update_term_meta($project_set, $role_key, 268);
update_term_meta($project_set, $role_field_key, 'field_5faa2bce9fe7c');
update_term_meta($project_set, $user_key, intval($user));
update_term_meta($project_set, $user_field_key, 'field_5faa2c0b9fe7d');
return get_term_meta($project_set);
} else {
return 'Please supply the correct request parameters: Outline Task ID, Write Task ID, Project Set ID and User ID';
}
}
I’ve had several issues where I tried to use ACF methods like update_field and add_row to solve a problem, and they weren’t working. I was able to update with native WP methods like update_post_meta and update_term_meta. Is there any reason I’m unaware of not to do this?
