Form data not saved in post

    I am using the freemium version of the plugin.

    I have a fieldset that I have created in ACF Pro. I have a “jobs submission” form that is on a page that I am using the Elementor Page Builder. I drag in the ACF Frontend Form widget and then I customize it.

    I had to backtrack quite a bit since last time I updated the site was in 2020 and your plugin options have changed alot!

    I have a custom post type setup that is for displaying the jobs. The job posts are rendered from the details that are submitted using the ACF Frontend form. The new CPT job posts go straight to pending and then when they are published, they appear on the website (using the WP archive page template). The issue is that none of the ACF fields are being saved! The only thing being saved in the post is the Title and the featured image – Not any of the ACF field data at all.

    What am I missing here? This used to work before. I am very confused.

    Thank you for reporting this issue. Under the setting “Save custom fields to…”, do you have “post” selected?
