Deprecated acfe/flexible/preview

Hello,

Thanks for the feedback! The acfe/flexible/preview hook has been deprecated since 0.8.6.7 version for code consistency purpose. If you want to do an action right before the Layout Template File is rendered, you should now use the acfe/flexible/render/before_template hook.

Here are the available hooks variations:

do_action("acfe/flexible/render/before_template", $field, $layout, $is_preview);
do_action("acfe/flexible/render/before_template/name=my_flexible", $field, $layout, $is_preview);
do_action("acfe/flexible/render/before_template/key=field_abc123", $field, $layout, $is_preview);
do_action("acfe/flexible/render/before_template/layout=my_layout", $field, $layout, $is_preview);
do_action("acfe/flexible/render/before_template/name=my_flexible&layout=my_layout", $field, $layout, $is_preview);
do_action("acfe/flexible/render/before_template/key=field_abc123&layout=my_layout", $field, $layout, $is_preview);

You can also do an action after the Template File render with the acfe/flexible/render/after_template hook.

Same logic, here are the available hooks variations:

do_action("acfe/flexible/render/after_template", $field, $layout, $is_preview);
do_action("acfe/flexible/render/after_template/name=my_flexible", $field, $layout, $is_preview);
do_action("acfe/flexible/render/after_template/key=field_abc123", $field, $layout, $is_preview);
do_action("acfe/flexible/render/after_template/layout=my_layout", $field, $layout, $is_preview);
do_action("acfe/flexible/render/after_template/name=my_flexible&layout=my_layout", $field, $layout, $is_preview);
do_action("acfe/flexible/render/after_template/key=field_abc123&layout=my_layout", $field, $layout, $is_preview);

If you simply don’t want to render a specific Layout Template File programmatically, you can use the acfe/flexible/render/template filter and return false (this hook is used between before_template & after_template hooks).

Here are the hooks variations:

apply_filters("acfe/flexible/render/template", $file, $field, $layout, $is_preview);
apply_filters("acfe/flexible/render/template/name=my_flexible", $file, $field, $layout, $is_preview);
apply_filters("acfe/flexible/render/template/key=field_abc123", $file, $field, $layout, $is_preview);
apply_filters("acfe/flexible/render/template/layout=my_layout", $file, $field, $layout, $is_preview);
apply_filters("acfe/flexible/render/template/name=my_flexible&layout=my_layout", $file, $field, $layout, $is_preview);
apply_filters("acfe/flexible/render/template/key=field_abc123&layout=my_layout", $file, $field, $layout, $is_preview);

Hope it helps!

Regards.

Hello,

I’m glad to hear that you made it works!
