Please begin a new topic and clearly state what you need help with. I'm not saying you need to use ACF, but that is what this topic is about, so I thought that was what you were asking about. Feel free to ignore that advice. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-checkbox-to-advanced-custom-fields-checkbox#post-108365 Wed, 26 Dec 2012 12:36:45 +0000 nitestop 108365@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>ok so u are saying i need to add ACF 1st because this MADE theme already has meta fields u can add...<br /> are you familiar with the MADE theme by themeforest... </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-checkbox-to-advanced-custom-fields-checkbox#post-108272 Wed, 26 Dec 2012 08:37:00 +0000 Chris Hajer 108272@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Have you contacted the author of the Advanced Custom Fields plugin? It sounds like the integration or implementation is related to their plugin. Gravity Forms is collecting the data, but it needs to be hooked to ACF somehow.

It seems like gravity forms does not allow for multiple fields to be passed through the form submission. I wish there was a tad bit more support on this issue as it seems very common that you would want the user to select multiple categories and have those categories be populated based off of which ever ones were selected. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-checkbox-to-advanced-custom-fields-checkbox#post-48974 Fri, 10 Feb 2012 01:13:53 +0000 Casey Kluver 48974@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have found the root of the issue. It looks like ACF values get populated with gravity forms ONLY when there is not multiple options. For example a radio button gravity forms post field populates one ACF radio button. It is the multiple selection items that do not get populates. When going from gravity forms checkbox post field to ACF checkbox, f there are multiple values that are selected from the gravity forms, only one value gets passed and populated for ACF. Same thing on multi select dropdowns.<br /> This to me seems like it is an issue with gravity forms? Any insight? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-checkbox-to-advanced-custom-fields-checkbox#post-48096 Wed, 01 Feb 2012 20:56:41 +0000 Casey Kluver 48096@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Ok so I have an update. I just upgraded to ACF 3.0.7 and I am now getting data passed. However on the gravity forms I have post field (custom field checkbox) and when I select multiple values on that form I only get one ACF checkbox field populated on the backend. Although I see the custom field values are created just not all of the ACF checkbox values...</p> <p>any thoughts on that? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/gravity-checkbox-to-advanced-custom-fields-checkbox#post-47765 Mon, 30 Jan 2012 12:21:11 +0000 Casey Kluver 47765@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi twymand,</p> <p>Thanks so much for the help. This is close. However I don't need the users to be able to update their listings. The admin can make any changes necessary from the backend. All I need is to be able to have the ACF checkbox fields get populated once the user "posts" their listing through the front-end. </p>
