I’m having the same issue – fields within repeater fields have the attribute disabled=”disabled”.
WP 4.1.1 and ACF PRO 5.2.2
Sorry for the late reply.
I’m feeling rather stupid now, but the problem for me has “magically gone away”… 😐 I haven’t touched the site in question for a day and returning to it today, the problem I was having with with save_post not being triggered in some themes but in others is gone.
So it must have been some random, temporary issue with my environment (I’m flabbergasted, can’t for the life of me figure out what could have caused that rather odd and not the least inconsistent behaviour).
Sometimes it seems “ignore it and it will go away” does work as a debugging tactic. -_- Sorry for all the fuss on my part!
And unfortunately it seems I spoke too soon about my own problem/solution; now save_post aren’t being triggered again for me… Argh! But for me that seems to be the problem atleast: the save_post action isn’t firing (in case someone else has this problem later on an reads this thread.)
@grobear Just to rule it out, have you tried running something like
add_action( 'save_post', 'foobar_function' );
function foobar_function() {
die('save_post triggered!');
}
, to make sure that save_post are being triggered as it should? 🙂
After some more debugging I found the problem in my case: I’m using the _s theme which in inc/template-tags.php has these 2 actions:
/**
* Flush out the transients used in hotelflora_categorized_blog.
*/
function _s_category_transient_flusher() {
// Like, beat it. Dig?
delete_transient( 'all_the_cool_cats' );
}
add_action( 'edit_category', '_s_category_transient_flusher' );
add_action( 'save_post', '_s_category_transient_flusher' );
For whatever reason, removing those hooks fixed the problem (which turns out that it was that any and all save_post hooks weren’t being triggered) for me.
Sorry for hijacking your thread @grobear, I hope you don’t mind. It’s just that we have the exact same problem. 🙂
Hi Elliot, I’m having the exact same problem as grobear, I’m attaching an export of the field group in question.
I’m having the problem with the data not being saved on any repeater field group I create, downgraded the Repeater add on to 1.0.1 just to test and the problem persists. (I’m using 4.3.2 of the main plugin.)
