Restrict Advanced Custom Field dropdown values based on user

[bander87]

Hi Vladimir,

I’m using Advanced Custom Fields. I have a dropdown of Page Links. Despite using the ‘edit selected posts and pages’ feature in the PRO version, all pages show up. I believe in ACF, there is a way to generate dynamic values from a dropdown. I’m thinking, if there is a way I can access the restricted IDs from the ‘edit selected posts and pages’ plugin, I will be able to filter pages to show.

Any ideas?

Looks like this data is stored in the user meta data? I will try get_user_meta to retrieve it.

All set, turns out ACF has functionality for this

acf/fields/post_object/query

Hi,

Thanks for letting me know that you found a solution.
Just in case it will be helpful, URE Pro offers a custom filter ure_edit_posts_access_id_list. You can get a list of posts ID (comma separated string) allowed/prohibited for editing to current user via this hook.

Access restriction type (allow/block) is available via filter ure_edit_posts_access_restriction_type.
