  • Perfect. I guess that’s job done then.

    Many thanks for your help.

  • Exactly what I needed. Many thanks.

    Do you know if the results of acf_get_field_groups or acf_get_fields are automatically cached in any way or do they always result in a separate db call?

    Updated version of my code if it’s useful to anyone:

    	public static function field_defined($name, $post_id='') {
    		
    		if(!$post_id){
    			if (!$post_id = get_the_ID()){throw new Exception("$id must be supplied if called outside of loop");}
    		}
    		$groups = acf_get_field_groups(array('post_id' => $post_id));
    		foreach($groups as $group){
    			foreach(acf_get_fields($group['key']) as $field){
    				if($field['name'] == $name){return true;}
    			}
    		}
    		return false;
    	}
