Just tried the pipes functionality and it worked perfectly.

Or almost perfectly… In ACF settings, when the Allow Null is checked, the result in ACF when sent from CF7 is somehow always Null. Even if the form is set correctly, whatever option is chosen in form by user, in ACF in WordPress Administration, the result is always Null.

When I uncheck Allow Null, it works fine.

This is not ideal, but it is also not crucial for me and I can handle this other way.

Thank you so much for great support @aurovrata. Have a great day!

Hello @aurovrata,

thank you for quick support and answer. Yes, I read that in other topics, but wondered if I am doing everything correctly.

Here is the way I use: https://imgur.com/8w8b9W6

To programmatically format the values is good point! So you suggest something like this (in pseudo) (AFC names are different):

if (value == "Radio Station") {value = "radio";}
elseif (value == "Newspaper") {value = "paper";}
elseif (value == "Television") {value = "tv";}
etc.

In other words, rewriting the “label value” to “value value”. This should not be a problem with use of this code from documentation, right?

add_filter('cf7_2_post_filter-quick-contact-age','filter_date_to_age',10,3);
function filter_date_to_age($value, $post_id, $form_data){
  //$value is the post field value to return, by default it is empty
  //$post_id is the ID of the post to which the form values are being mapped to
  // $form_data is the submitted form data as an array of field-name=>value pairs
  if(isset($form_data['date-of-birth']){
    //calculate the age
    $value = ....
  }
  return $value;
}
