Alex | We are adding WP User Frontend Pro to an existing site that has a lot of custom content types and fields created in ACF (Advanced Custom Fields). I need the forms on the front end which I have created with WP User Frontend Pro to have fields which tally with the ones I have created in ACF, so that the when someone completes a form on the front end the data is entered into the correct ACF fields for the post. I really hope this is possible, and hope you can help me soon. Secondly, and on a similar questions, can users edit posts already created before WP User Frontend Pro was installed? Thank you for your time. Best wishes, Andrew. |

Tareq Hasan | As long the post meta key are the same, they should work perfectly. But for some fields, they might not be compatible. Yes, they can. For that, you’ve to select the fallback/default form in plugin settings. So, that form will be used to edit those posts that were created before. |

Andrew | Thank you Tareq. When you say “But for some fields, they might not be compatible” – which fields are they? Is it a certain type of field? |

Tareq Hasan | Well, for example, repeater field will not work as they save differently then WPUF. |

Andrew | But you have a repeater field I could set up instead? Best wishes, Andrew Andrew Brown Web design: Are you looking for bespoke website design, development and hosting at great prices? Let Brown Media take care of it so you can concentrate on doing what you do best. Just ask for details. |

Tareq Hasan | Yes, that one you can. But I was saying, not all the fields are compatible with each-other. |

Andrew | Hi Tareq. Am I currently on a single site licence or unlimited? I bought the licence a long time ago and can’t remember.
