- Here’s a quick video set tutorial on how to display a frontend form built with ACF, and it saves the submissions to a CPT (custom post type) of your choice. This means you can display the user submitted content anywhere on your site if you want.
The form will be displayed via shortcode so it can be dropped anywhere on the site. (don't forget to hide it behind a password, noindex, or a login, otherwise you're looking at a bunch of spam)

omg... never noticed there is a plugin file editor...... so I'm already thankful for that!! :D
Thank You for this Awesome Video PK... I am also a full-time BD user. Louis those are working on more documentation and Videos as well. Once a person can really grasp ACF they can build incredible Websites.
Thank you for the kind words, and yes, I love ACF and how it can really change the web experience for clients!
@@almostInevitable Isnt the Metabox front-end form extension easier to use then this method?
@@BuildersFilmStudio Hi, I wouldn't know haha I haven't used metabox. I'm sure it is easier from what you've said haha
I've also heard that ACF extension pro can do the same as well, frontend ACF form without coding anything.
This tutorial is.. naturally for those that don't fall into any of the above user groups haha
I wouldn't be surprised if ACF brings this into the fold as a native feature soon, they seem to be doing that now, especially with 6.2 including options page and bidirectional fields, both possible with some php from their documentation, but now easily done via admin panel settings. So yeah, this might come soon.
Thank you ! I was wondering if you had a code snippet for how to edit an existing CPT post? Also looking for how to add capability to upload a featured image.
When I try to install the plugin it says "Incompatible archive". It fails to install. Am I missing something?
I have already installed, ACF pro, ACF columns and Breakdance.
I appreciate this video and the code to make this CPT Form on the front end. I got it working but after I Submit the form it does save on the backend but the frontend page goes white and the page will not reload with the Submitted Message displaying. Is there an additional step missing? I am using your plugin. Thanks again!
