Use Toolset Custom Fields or Taxonomies instead of ACF?

    hi,

    Im really interested in this plugin, watched the videos and looks great, but i have a few questions:

    I see that you can enable applying values to ACF custom fields….. can it also map to Toolset Custom fields, and perhaps Taxonomy term values?

    I see that for the state we can choose between short and long_name values… but i would like to get BOTH values, assigned to different fields (more flexibility in what to display). Can the plugin do that as is or, i suppose by tweaking one of the unneeded admin area fields to assign a second “state” value?

    ! also would like to have the “neighborhood” value assigned to a custom field for that as well….. but it isnt listed in there as an option although it can be returned with the google api if the result is a large city and has them.

    I appreciate any additional info on this, sounds pretty close to what i need.

    update:

    I installed the free version here, and after putting in my google api key and setting the field to be used to autocomplete just like the photo in the link shows, it worked fine and did an autocomplete of the form field. https://ps.w.org/autocomplete-google-address/assets/screenshot-1.jpg?rev=2133698

    BUT after installing the demo PRO version with temporary license key, there IS NOT field to assign the autcomplete field to use! And the assigned earlier in the free version does not carry over (and, even if it did, it couldnt be easily edited if no input field in admin to change it). The fields to define which form fields should get populated with what data are there but, without the admin field to specify which form field should be used for autocomplete it is of course not going to work….. and now my demo pro license key is expired and i couldnt see it in real action.

    Update:

    so the plugin looks AMAZING! I had trouble getting the pro version to work and make a field autocomplete, although the free version worked fine….. and it took unfortunately a looooong time, and a lot of great support from the plugin author, before i realized that the cause was a simple matter of ME not including the trailing / after the domain in the plugin settings for the “your site” url field….. ugh. It threw me off that the free version worked fine, so didnt even cross my mind that something “that easy” could be the cause and I am really impressed how committed the plugin author was via email to make it work. Respect! and THANKS!
