Hello!
I’m glad you enjoy ACF Extended 🙂 Regarding your questions:
1/ Well this would involve some hard work, what you ask for looks like the native WP customizer feature but for front-end users. I cannot give you a perfect code as it would vary depending on your theme and style.
There is a feature request which is bit related tho, being able to edit ACF fields in the front-end via a side panel. This is something that is doable, but it will be available for logged users in the WP-Admin section at first. The feature request is here: https://trello.com/c/rB10gThS/16-acf-front-end-fields-edition
2/ Can you send me some screenshots of your form configuration, specifically the “Update” action with tabs etc…?
There is probably a problem with the “load value” setting & fields mapping data.
Thanks in advance.
Regards.
Hi
Thanks for replaying
Regarding number one
I wrote acf support and this is what they wrote me:
—————-
You will need to manipulate fields on the client-side using javascript.
We have the ACF javascript API which makes it easy to attach an event to a field of your choice.
For example:
// get the field instance
var field = acf.getField(‘your_field_id’);
// add an event OnChange
field.on(‘onChange’, ‘.wp-color-picker’, function( e ){
//Use field value to change the color of title
});

What you wrote regarding a side panel ‘ this is actualy what im doing right now
I added a side panel with front form shortcode/paenl is accsiable only to author of the post
The panel is attached to single post type template
And actually it works good
I wish it could act like a live editor
You think that it can be done with what acf support wrote me?
Regarding 2
I discovered what went wrong when fields are wrapped in groups
on front end they wont load the values
when i remove them from group they get values
ive noticed that my reapator fileds dont load values
do you know maybe if its a bug or ami doing somthing wrongs
thanks a lot
Hello,
1/ Yes, the code they gave you is correct. You can definitely work this out. It will require to dive in Javascript tho.
2/ I need to see some screenshots to understand what’s going on.
Maybe you can join us on Slack so we can discuss it (here is an invitation link).
Regards.
Hello,
Any news about the screenshots for the form field mapping?

Hello,
I suppose the problem has been resolved. I’m closing the ticket.
