  • Good to know, and thanks for coming back to me!

    What about adding in a licence key if I don’t have access to the updates page? I know that licence keys can be included manually in the wp-config.php file, but this falls outside of the theme file structure so I wouldn’t be able to include this as part of my core theme files.

    Would I need to do manually add this licence key on a site-by-site basis, or would I simply be able to ignore adding any licence keys onto a site entirely, providing that each client has purchased their own copy of ACF Pro of course?

  • Thank you very much kind sir!

  • This has now been solved:

  • I’ve done some A/B testing, and it looks as though none of the custom variables I’ve defined in my example code above are pulling through at all.

    For example, changing the output of the $cpt_slug variable to output a simple “post-type-name” string (instead of pulling through any ACF field data) results in the CPT not registering, but typing the exact same “post-type-name” string into the register_post_type action as shown below, does register the CPT (albeit without any of the custom labels I”m trying to get working):

    register_post_type( "post-type-name", $args );

    Additionally, the if / else statements defined for the $labels arrays aren’t working properly either.

    I know this because changing all of the $args lines to be written in their standard format without any variable or ACF field calls at all, results in the default else: variations pulling through instead.

    Note: None of the above information has solved my issue, but hopefully it will help clarify which parts of my code just aren’t working from the offset!

  • Thank you for the reply! I have now amended the code as per your suggestion but it still doesn’t seem to be registering my CPTs:

    Amended PHP Code

    Do you have any other ideas about why this code might not be running?

    If it helps add any context, this code is utilised in a separate, dedicated PHP file which has been called through as ‘require’ in my functions.php file.

  • I managed to solve this myself. According to this post, it looks as though array_unique doesn’t work with sub_field text strings on ACF. Instead, using an if !in_array command worked fine, as seen in the below example:

    if( have_rows('global_typography', 'option') ):
    while( have_rows('global_typography', 'option') ) : the_row();          
        // display your sub fields
        $custom_font_file = get_sub_field('global_custom_font_file');
        // compare current value in saved array
        if( !in_array( $custom_font_file, $PreValue ) )
            {
            print '@font-face {' . PHP_EOL;
            print 'font-family: '; the_sub_field('global_custom_font_family_name'); print ';' . PHP_EOL;
            print "src: url('"; the_sub_field('global_custom_font_file'); print "');" . PHP_EOL;
            print 'font-weight: normal;' . PHP_EOL;
            print '}' . PHP_EOL  . PHP_EOL;
            }
        // save value in array
        $PreValue[] = $custom_font_file;
    endwhile;
endif;
