Hello,
I am completely stupid :). The issue has been solved.
I overlooked a function which had a return when a user is not logged in..
add_action( 'get_header', 'tsm_do_acf_form_head', 1 );
function tsm_do_acf_form_head() {
// Bail if not logged in or not able to post
if ( ! ( is_user_logged_in() || current_user_can('publish_posts') ) ) {
return;
}
acf_form_head();
}
Thank you very much for your help, above code was the issue and I removed it.
Hello John,
Actually yes, we have that.
I even tried to take a clean code now, from the link you sent, and added post_author, but even that does not seem to work, we keep getting returned to the form when not logged in
function my_pre_save_post( $post_id ) {
// check if this is to be a new post
if( $post_id != 'new' ) {
return $post_id;
}
// Create a new post
$post = array(
'post_status' => 'draft' ,
'post_author' => '9',
'post_title' => 'A title, maybe a dadadada variable' ,
'post_type' => 'hufter' ,
);
// insert the post
$post_id = wp_insert_post( $post );
// return the new ID
return $post_id;
}
add_filter('acf/pre_save_post' , 'my_pre_save_post', 10, 1 );
Hello,
Just letting you know, I also tried this code, which I took from the acf website:
acf_form(array(
'post_id' => 'new_post',
'post_title' => true,
'post_content' => true,
'new_post' => array(
'post_type' => 'hufter',
'post_author' => 9,
'post_status' => 'publish'
),
'return' => home_url('contact-form-thank-you'),
'submit_value' => 'Send'
));
(hufter is the post_type we use)
But even that is sending me back to the page I already am on, when I am not logged in, and when I am logged in; it does save the post but it does not assign it to the user (even though that user is set as admin so he can publish)
Hi @markbloomfield,
Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately, I already tried it like that, and now again, but it still fails when a user is not logged in.
I get redirected back to the same page I already am on as soon as I use post_author in the array.
`<?php
$new_post = array(
‘post_id’ => ‘new’,
‘post_author’ => ‘9’,
‘field_groups’ => array(2023,2028),
‘form’ => true,
‘return’ => ‘%post_url%’, // Redirect to new post url
‘html_before_fields’ => ”,
‘html_after_fields’ => ”,
‘submit_value’ => ‘Melding plaatsen’,
‘updated_message’ => ‘Melding geplaatst!’
);
acf_form( $new_post );
?>
