Custom fields in the wpcf7 form editor backend

  • Hello guys,

    i’m trying to use custom fields data to extend some form/page definitions (look, i’m not trying to fill form fields with custom field data – I want to save some extra information on the wpcf7 form post metadata to use in the page that I’ll show the form).

    For it, I’m using ACF with the location rules (display custom fields on post_type = wpcf7_contact_form). But the field doesn’t appears..

    Is there some know limitations or restrictions with ACF PRO plugin?
    Thanks!

  • Hello Augusto,

    I am also attempting this.
    I’m using ACF Pro and field group doesn’t show in wpcf7_contact_form creation.

    I guess there’s nothing wrong with ACF, it’s in the rendering of the admin UI of Contact Form 7 that disregards metadata, I think.

    Any update?

    Cheers,

    Hi Ammo,

    yes, I agree with you, nothing wrong with ACF.
    I sent a message to ACF support and told about this issue, and nothing can be done on the ACF side.

    Maybe it’s a hook-clean that wpcf7 do before render the form edit screen.

    So, no updates ??

    Cheers,
    Augusto
