Autofill ACF Fields | WordPress.org

Hi @iceman3333,

I’m afraid, there isn’t any out-of-the-box setting for such a workflow. However, this should be possible using custom code.

I’m checking with our developer regarding this to see if we could provide a workaround.

Will keep you posted once we get further feedback asap.

Kind Regards,

Hi @iceman3333,

Could you please try this snippet and see whether it helps:

<?php

add_action( 'forminator_before_form_render', 'wpmudev_number_field_value_form', 10, 5 );
function wpmudev_number_field_value_form( $id, $form_type, $post_id, $form_fields, $form_settings ) {
	if ( 943 == $id ) {
		add_filter( 'forminator_field_number_markup', 'wpmudev_add_value_field_cpt', 10, 5 );
	}
}

function wpmudev_add_value_field_cpt( $html, $id, $required, $placeholder, $value ) {
	$meta_val="";
	if ( strpos( $id, 'forminator-field-number-1' ) !== false ) {
		$meta_val = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'member_number', true );
		$html = str_replace( 'name="number-1"', 'name="number-1" value="'.$meta_val.'"', $html );
	}
	
	return $html;
}

The above snippet is only meant to auto fill a Number field in the form with an ACF field.

Where 943 in the above code is a form ID and would recommend you to replace that with your form ID.

In the given code, the number-1 should be changed to your Number fields ID in your form. The member_number in above code needs to be replaced with the ACF custom field name.

You can apply the above code as a mu-plugins. Please check this link on how to implement the above code as a mu-plugins:
