Yup, I get that. Thanks for talking through it!
Hm – maybe I’m not being totally clear in my ask.
When a flex field is added to a page, there are three control buttons:
Add Layout
Duplicate Layout
Remove Layout
I’d like to add another control button here. Does that make sense?
Got it – thanks for the quick response.
How can I submit a feature request for something like this?
Got it — thank you for that awesome insight, John!
So to be clear about one thing — even if I know the meta_key of a field created by The Events Calendar — _EventCost, for example — I would need to create an ACF field ALSO called _EventCost in order to write to it?
That being the case, I could not include the plugin’s _EventCost field somehow within my acf_form call?
I think I have the right — does that sound correct?
Thanks for responding, John! That does sound like an option that could work.
Maybe this is more of a general question about acf_form, but I assume that acf_form only allows you to write to
1) custom fields created in ACF, and
2) generic WordPress fields (title, content, etc.)
Is that accurate?
If so, how does acf_form identify the non-ACF fields? If I had the meta_key of a non-ACF custom field, could I write to it?
