ACF Post Object Field

Hi @dnicinski ,

Thank you for your message. Unfortunately, I don’t understand much. Could you explain what’s going on? Exactly, step by step.

When using the ACF Post Object it has a search box to filter through posts/pages.

Example – https://i.imgur.com/N3HpZAj.png

When your plugin is activated the search results are not accurate. When the plugin is deactivated the search works again.

Hi @dnicinski,

Thank you for your waiting time.

Please download the latest version of the plugin, then try adding the following code to your theme:

add_filter('acfbs_is_available', function($status) {
  if (!isset($_POST['action']) || !in_array($_POST['action'], ['acf/fields/post_object/query'])) return $status;
  return false;
});

Thanks to this you will be able to turn off search engine at any time. Let me know if this solves your problem?

Hi @mateuszgbiorczyk

That is throwing a lot of errors with PHP_CodeSniffer in WordPress. https://github.com/squizlabs/PHP_CodeSniffer

How about this instead? ??

/**
 * ACF Better Search plugin: Turn off search for Post Object field.
 *
 * @param string $status Status.
 */
function object_acfbs_is_available( $status ) {
	if ( ! empty( wp_verify_nonce( sanitize_key( $_POST['action'] ) ) ) || ! in_array( $_POST['action'], [ 'acf/fields/post_object/query' ], true ) ) {
		return $status;
	} else {
		return false;
	}
}
add_filter( 'acfbs_is_available', 'object_acfbs_is_available', 10, 2 );

Of course. If you use PHP_CodeSniffer standards then this version will be appropriate. Does it work properly for you?

Yes. Seems to be working just fine.

I’ll let you know if any other issues come up.

Thanks

Hi again,

We ran into the same exact issue with the relationship field – ‘acf/fields/relationship/query’

Can you send a fix to ignore this field too? https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf-fields-relationship-query/

Thank you!

@dnicinski, I sent you a filter that you can use.

Customize it so that it also works for this field.

Hi @mateuszgbiorczyk

The filter seems to be working for both post_object and relationship field together.

Here’s the code for anyone else if needed…

if ( ! empty( wp_verify_nonce( sanitize_key( $_POST[‘action’] ) ) ) || ( ! in_array( $_POST[‘action’], [ ‘acf/fields/post_object/query’ ], true ) && ! in_array( $_POST[‘action’], [ ‘acf/fields/relationship/query’ ], true ) ) ) {

Thanks
