It does the job it was created to do
saving data from the front

Hi,
does your plugin support saving data from the front ( using acf_form() ) (not from the admin area) ?
Thanks for your help.
Great plugin, but lacks basic functionality
By alexene22 on September 28, 2023
You have to create the custom posts by hand, one by one, from the admin. If you import them bulk, the custom table will not be updated. I have a custom post already created that I want to transfer to custom table; if I go to a post and update it, nothing happens, the data is not saved in the custom table.
Great plugin - 5 stars

This plugin is very useful. The only feature I would love to see is an automatic update option built in.
Amazing plugin
