+1000 for this feature request! I recently had issues with a client’s search form that uses custom field data that was broken because it was using an old custom field structure that was no longer in place, and I had no idea that was an issue. Please please add this feature soon!

Perfect! Thanks very much for your help
Thanks for your quick reply! Your example worked to compare the values, but the $old_value is returning an array rather than a single value. This is the output from print_r($field):
Array ( [key] => field_56607351f4d8b [label] => Delivery Method [name] => delivery_method [_name] => delivery_method [type] => text [order_no] => 1 [instructions] => [required] => 0 [id] => acf-field-delivery_method [class] => text [conditional_logic] => Array ( [status] => 0 [allorany] => all [rules] => 0 ) [default_value] => [allow_null] => 0 [multiple] => 0 [formatting] => html [maxlength] => [placeholder] => [prepend] => [append] => ) 1
I’m not sure the difference between [name] and [_name] but perhaps since they have the same value, that’s why I’m getting an array?
