File field returns ID
Even with 'return_format' => 'array' or 'return_format' => 'url' the value returned is ID.
->addFile('pdf', [
'label' => 'PDF',
'return_format' => 'array',
])
$pdf = get_field('pdf');
var_dump($pdf)

What is the output from the entire FieldsGroupBuilder build function, what does the resulting configuration array look like?
According to the ACF docs, array is the default return value for this field type so I'm not sure why it is happening, or that it is an ACF Builder specific problem.
This is a var_dump of the builder. It says 'return_format' => string 'array' for the element 1 of array (pdf field), but still returning ID.
If I make it the same field with de GUI interface from ACF, it return the array. With ACF-builder, just return ID.
This is the builder in context: https://github.com/aitormendez/superbiajuridico/blob/master/web/app/themes/sj/app/fields/sentencias.php

Can you do a print_r($builder->build()); replacing $builder with whatever
the variable is named.
ok, thank you for the indications.

This seems similar to other issues: #106, #81 and at this point I'm still not sure why. Can you export the JSON versions of the version you built with the ACF UI that does work?
of course:

Ok next question is when the field getting registered in code? Is it getting executed on the front end, before the ACF get_field function is called? Can you put some sort of debug code around it to test if it is getting called?
I'm not sure about what do you mean exactly (I'm not much experienced developer). Anyway, I declare the fields in the App namespace:
https://github.com/aitormendez/superbiajuridico/tree/master/web/app/themes/sj/app/fields
Then, I get field from template. So, get_field is executed after field builder:
https://github.com/aitormendez/superbiajuridico/blob/master/web/app/themes/sj/resources/views/partials/content-sentence.blade.php#L8
In other hand, all other fields work fine.
Is this useful?
Same issue here. Worth noting I'm using Log1x/acf-composer, but the issue is identical:
Even with
'return_format' => 'array'or'return_format' => 'url'the value returned is ID.
print_r($builder->build()); shows the correct value, as above.
Using ACF Pro 5.12.1 (latest) if that helps.
@dalepgrant After looking into it again, I think the cause is defining the fields in the init WordPress action. I was finally able to recreate this in a Sage theme. If I build the field inside a the init action like:
add_action('init', function() {
$builder = new FieldsBuilder('hero');
$builder->addFile('background_video');
acf_add_local_field_group($builder->build());
});
get_field in my blade template will return the file id
var_dump(get_field('background_video')); // string(3) "446"
But if I take the field building outside of the init action
$builder = new FieldsBuilder('hero');
$builder->addFile('background_video');
acf_add_local_field_group($builder->build());
get_field will return an array
array(23) { ["ID"]=> int(446) ["id"]=> int(446) ["title"]=> string(15).....
I think this is because get_field in the template is getting called before the init action fires, therefore the ACF field isn't defined yet.
Try moving the code outside the init action and see if that fixes the problem.
So more specifically it has to do where the add_action('init', function or add_action('acf/init', function function is being defined, if you're using them.
In a Sage theme, if I move it directly into the setup.php file, it still works inside the init action correctly. (I had them in a Controller before, and defining them in an init action didn't work)
The main cause still is acf_add_local_field_group() getting called after get_field()
