Acf Field Checkbox change the Value to Label

    Hello,

    Thank you very much for the plugin. We have already looked around in the forum and found some “hooks”. Unfortunately, we have not yet been able to make the desired changes. On the page we have an ACF checkbox with Label and values displayed:

    plan_a : Plan A
    plan_b : Plan B

    We currently get the Value (plan_a and plan_b) displayed in the filter. At this point we would like to have the labels displayed. For this we have used the following code:

    add_filter('wpc_filter_post_meta_term_name', 'wpc_custom_term_name', 10, 2);
    function wpc_custom_term_name($term_name, $e_name){
    if( $e_name === 'plans' ){
    $term_name = get_the_title( $term_name );
    }
    return $term_name;
    }

    Unfortunately it does not work.

    It would also be nice if we could adjust the URL structure. How can we change this?

    Hello @tempuswebdesign

    Thank you for using Filter Everything plugin. In your case you can try to use next code. Don’t forget to edit it with your ACF field meta key: 

    add_filter( 'wpc_filter_post_meta_term_name', 'wpc_acf_labels_instead_of_values', 20, 2 );
function wpc_acf_labels_instead_of_values( $term_name, $meta_key )
{
    // your ACF-field meta keys
    $keys_with_labels = ['my_first_meta_key', 'my_second_meta_key', 'my_third_meta_key'];

    if ( in_array( $meta_key, $keys_with_labels ) ) {
        if( function_exists('get_field_object') ){
            $field = get_field_object( $meta_key );

            $new_choises = [];
            if( isset( $field['choices'] ) && ! empty( $field['choices'] ) ){
                foreach ( $field['choices'] as $key => $value ){
                    $new_key = mb_strtolower($key);
                    $new_choises[$new_key] = $value;
                }

                $term_name_test = mb_strtolower( $term_name );
                if( isset( $new_choises[$term_name_test] ) ){
                    $term_name = $new_choises[$term_name_test];
                }
            }
        }
    }

    return $term_name;
}

    Hello,
    the script works perfectly, but only temporarily. After a short time, the value values are visible. What could be the reason for this? As soon as a post is reopened and saved again, the label values are displayed again.

    I have the same problem, I mean that the filters display the value instead of the label. For example, for the ACF field with key shop_area, these are the values and the labels:

    Spain_south : South of Spain
    Spain_north : North of Spain
    France_south : South of France
    France_north : South of France

    However, the filters of the plugin show:

    Spain_south (14)
    Spain_north (26)
    France_south (25)
    France_north (32)

    I have tried to add your code (from your last comment on March, 3rd) in functions.php but it has not worked.

    add_filter( 'wpc_filter_post_meta_term_name', 'wpc_acf_labels_instead_of_values', 20, 2 );

function wpc_acf_labels_instead_of_values( $term_name, $meta_key )

{

// your ACF-field meta keys

$keys_with_labels = ['shop_area','shop_ranking'];

if ( in_array( $meta_key, $keys_with_labels ) ) {

if( function_exists('get_field_object') ){

$field = get_field_object( $meta_key );

$new_choises = [];

if( isset( $field['choices'] ) && ! empty( $field['choices'] ) ){

foreach ( $field['choices'] as $key => $value ){

$new_key = mb_strtolower($key);

$new_choises[$new_key] = $value;

}

$term_name_test = mb_strtolower( $term_name );

if( isset( $new_choises[$term_name_test] ) ){

$term_name = $new_choises[$term_name_test];

}

}

}

}

return $term_name;

}

    ?How can we make it work?
