Hello Eduardo,

when I paste a text with some special characters “é” into the ACF text area and save the post, all of these characters are lost. When I paste the text directly into the custom table, it works. But when I save the post afterwards, the characters disappear.

Do you have an idea?

Thank you in advance!

Hello,
I’ve just installed the plugin to test it out with my existing custom fields.
Unfortunately I get the following error message, when I enable the button “ACF:Fields in Custom Table” within a custom field:
“ACF: Fields in Custom Table error:You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MariaDB server version for the right syntax to use near ‘alter longtext NULL, thumbnail varchar(255) NULL, vollbild varchar(255) NUL…’ at line 8”

What does this mean? Thank you very much for your help!
Andreas

Does the plugin support Repeater field?

When using

 add_filter("acf/pre_update_value", function ($default, $value, $post_id, $field) {
            if ($field[ ACF_FICT::SETTINGS_ENABLED ]) {
                return false;
            }

            return $default;
        }, 10, 4);

to prevent the creation of the original meta table entries, it will break the Admincolumns Integration of those ACFs – all fields are null.

Are there any plans to look into that?

Salam n Hola

Just tested this out.
Seems like even after using this plugin, data is still stored in the WP Post Meta table.

Is it supposed to do this?

Can we not use WP Post Meta when a custom table is used?

Hello, this plugin looks great!
I’m currently using the geodirectory plugin, which already stores post meta in its own tables. Is it possible to use this plugin to edit those tables? It looks like this plugin adds a “ACF” prefix to the table?

Hi, you have a typo in your code in ‘acf-fields-in-custom-table/acf-fields-in-custom-table.php’ on line 108. 'label' => _('Custom table name', 'acfict'), should be 'label' => __('Custom table name', 'acfict'),. This is likely also what is causing issues with WP All Import.

When you import using WP All Import all the ACF fields show up empty. When I deactivate this plugin it works fine. I want to be able to import my custom posts using WP All Import and write them to the database using your plugin but when I import all the ACF fields show up blank.

Hello, fantastic plugin.

Can you query the data with native wordrpess functions or after they are stored in custom table you have to write custom code to retrieve those fields?

If i want to show the acf fields will the native acf method work to get those fields?

Thank you.

Hi @eduardomarcolino
Bravo! And thanks for offering us such a valuable resource. I am sure this plugin has a bright future.

I am just getting started out with ACF Pro and experimenting with a few projects.

Was wondering if ACF Pro fields would be supported by your plugin? If not now, then is there a roadmap for inclusion of that?

Thanks and best wishes
Vy
