    Hi,
    I’m using dyniamic front forms, but when I fill the form from front-end nothing but title gets stored!
    I’m overriding the form render, and have a complete custom HTML-form rendered.

    Do I need to use some sort of custom action to save fields to posts?

    Hello,

    Thanks for the feedback! Your report is pretty vague tho. Can you please share a screenshot of your ACFE Form “Post Action” configuration?

    Please make sure to correctly check the ACF Fields you want to be saved as a meta in the Post Action “Save” tab. See screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/BOTFhi6.png

    Additionally, you can enable the Developer Mode to see what meta are actually saved on a post. Maybe the meta is saved, but isn’t displayed in the admin because there is no Field Group available?

    Hope it helps!

    Regards.

    Hi,
    And sorry for late reply. (Crazy at work…)

    No meta where saved anywhere! But I made a dirty fix by mapping all fields in my functions.php and using the ‘acfe/form/submit/post’-action to save on submit

    Hello,

    Hummm it’s weird. I would recommend to try to setup a simple WordPress install with blank theme and only ACF + ACF Extended to test it. Mapping the fields from the UI should work.

    Let me know if you managed to test it.

    Have a nice day!

    Regards.
