how to make ACF shown in dropdown menu?

Hi Kitaek,

Can you confirm you have the latest version of Import WP v2.11.3 and Import WP Pro v.2.9.5 installed? and i would recommend deactivating and removing the Import WP ACF addon as this is now included in pro.

If you have these two versions installed, sometimes acf fields can not show up if the locations are two specific, if this is the case can you add the code found here: https://www.importwp.com/docs/advanced-custom-fields-faq/#unable-to-find-acf-field-in-custom-field-list 

This should make all acf fields appear in the custom fields dropdown, if it does not, can you export and attach your acf field group, so that i can investigate further along with your importer settings to this ticket by going to Tools > Import WP > Settings / Tools > Import / Export and select and export your importer as a JSON file.

Thanks

James

Hi James,

Thanks for your quick response. The versions are the newest when i imported. Also questions are two:

1. How to set 'cells' for ACF?

2. Where should i add the code?

The file you requested is attached.

Thanks!

I have added the custom code the the attached plugin, if you can install and activate it, you should see the custom field dropdown populated with all your acf custom fields.

This will then let you select acf fields in the dropdowns where you can then populate from your csv file, Documentation on importing to acf fields can be found here: https://www.importwp.com/section/advanced-custom-fields/

If you need any more help just let me know.

Hi,

I did install and activate the file but it does not work as you described. I tested 3 types of header:

ACF - custom_fields._co_reading_id - Text

ACF - co_reading_id - Text

ACF - readingid - Text

The ACF fields are shown in the process of 2.File Settings like capture1.png attached.

However, it is not in 3. Template Fields > Custom Fields like capture1.png attached.

Thanks.

Can you export your acf field group via ACF > tools > Export and select the field groups that these 3 fields are apart of?

Hi,

Would you mind to explain where i can find "ACF > tools > Exports"??

Are you using the acf plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/ , or is it just the default wordpress custom fields?

Sorry, it is just the default wordpress custom fields.

I thought the ACF function should be needed to import multiple values.

I have this issue months ago so will close this ticket and reopen the older ticket. 

Thanks.
