Checkboxes problem

    Hi,

    Everytime I update a post on the backend some checkbox fields that were “checked” on the front-end submission form get “unchecked”.

    They are all checkboxes with only one option (‘yes’) with the metakey of a custom field that is also a checkbox option in the backend (and also gets selected when users check the field on the front-end form submission) so I’m guessing it has something to do with fields with the same name being duplicated on the same section of the backend post edit page.

    How can I avoid this duplication when WPUF automatically creates on the backend post edit page all the fields that are displayed on the front-end form submission? Or how else could I fix this?

    I’m having a similar issue with a radio field with two options.

    Please let me know if something wasn’t clear.

    Thank you

    Hi Samrot,

    Thank you for reaching out regarding the issue with displaying hidden field values on the edit page for custom post types using the WP User Frontend (WPUF) plugin.

    Based on your description, you have taken the right steps by enabling the “ACF Compatibility” in the WPUF settings, which allowed the regular custom field values to be displayed. However, hidden field values are still not visible on the edit page within the admin panel then it requires adding custom code.

    Hope this information will help.

    Hi! I’m having the same issue with checkboxes. I’ve tried various versions of custom code and nothing is saving front-end changes to the wp-edit screen. Your reply did not in fact help. What is the custom code that will write the changes to the custom fields inside wp-edit?
