Wyclef, if you’re still looking for some answers to this.. I’ve found this script that has gotten me about 90% there. The date works, just having a little trouble getting the time of day sorted out. It’s worth checking out.

It’s 2023 and I now have this issue (again) on a different site.
This just started happening to a site i’m working on. Seems to be an issue with a bunch of URL input fields which I’m using to house the client’s list of social media URLs.
I can’t imagine that “twitter” and “linkedin” are reserved WP variable names.
I just moved them to another Theme Option section so I could edit the other values. WACKY.
Actually, nevermind. Was able to do this by exporting the JSON for both, and copying/pasting layouts from one to the other and resaving the posts. Seemed to work just fine!

I’m actually creating brand new ACF fields, and not trying to use any old data.
I’ll look into the update field documentation. I would have done a DB import, at a mySQL level, but the data was superflous and I only needed certain portions of the site.
If I manually put a “1” into the stock Custom Field text box for an ACF true/false checkbox, then it will update and save just that one field.
