Thanks for jumping in there @acf-support, I had the same inkling but wasn’t certain, so wanted to double-check before posting, but you beat me to it! 🙂

Hi @leanda

I’m far from an expert, so feel free to check this out, but no promises from me that it is robust!

function my_acf_save_post( $post_id ) {
		// bail early if no ACF data
		if( empty($_POST['acf']) ) {
			return;
		}
		
		// bail early if editing in admin
		if( is_admin() ) {
			return;
		}
		
		if( $_POST['post_id'] != 'new' ) {
			
			$emailField = $_POST['acf']['field_XXXXXXXXXXXXX'];
			$wp_user_id = str_replace("user_", "", $post_id);
			
			if (isset($emailField)) {
				if (email_exists( $emailField )){
					// Email exists, do not update value.
					// Maybe output a warning.
					update_field('field_XXXXXXXXXXXXX', get_the_author_meta('user_email',$wp_user_id), $post_id);
				} else {
					$args = array(
						'ID'         => $wp_user_id,
						'user_email' => esc_attr( $emailField )
					);            
					wp_update_user( $args );
				}  
			} 	
		}
		
		// return the ID
		return $post_id;
	}
	add_action('acf/save_post', 'my_acf_save_post', 20);

Hope that’s of some use!

Thanks James, glad I wasn’t missing something obvious!
