Taxonomy Terms not being saved

Hi and thanks for this plugin!

I am using this with ACF Pro and Elementor.

I had setup a form to edit taxonomy terms and previously this had been working well. It has been a few months since I’ve worked on the site. Somewhere with the recent updates, the form no longer saves the text – Term name or Term Description of the edited term.

In the settings I have setup the form to save custom fields to term. Under Term in the settings it is set to Edit Term, URL Query and term_id.

When I save and the page reloads, the edit to the text I have made disappears. Checking under the submissions section shows that the form has been submitted with the change, and it shows it with a status of approved, however the change is not made in the database.

I have a ACF Field for a featured image that is attached to the taxonomy term and this can be updated and it does save the change. It is only the text – name and description – of the term that does not update.

I had this as a form created in elementor but I have also tested by recreating the form in the Frontend > Forms section and linking to the shortcode and neither of them are working.

I’m guessing it is something to do with permissions? But I don’t know what I have missed in the updates.

Thanks, Jon
