Thanks, actually, I figured it out; I had to use $post->ID, as $post_id gave me the same date for all posts.
And I used a different concatenation method to put the date first:
function add_post_object_date( $title, $post, $field, $post_id ) {
$post_date = get_the_date( 'j F Y - ',$post->ID);
$date_title = "$post_date $title";
return $date_title;
}
add_filter('acf/fields/post_object/result', 'add_post_object_date', 10, 4);
And FYI for anyone else reading, this sorts the post objects by date in the backend:
add_filter( 'acf/fields/post_object/query', 'change_posts_order' );
function change_posts_order( $args ) {
$args['orderby'] = 'date';
$args['order'] = 'DESC';
return $args;
Exactly what I need; thanks!
Thanks! Will have to read those links and try them out.
Nope, the code tags don’t allow entities to be posted. Must be a limited Tiny-MCE editor.
Yes, html entities work in the Instructions fields; thanks. I should have tried that. HTML like break tags work.
The code tags in the forum editor should work to be able to post entities without converting them, like this:
< for < arrow and > for right arrow.
Ouch, typo: title should be Show instead of Shoe.
