    Hi,

    I have a drop-down range setup for one of my ACF fields, using the Value Postifx option creates:

    5miles – 15miles

    But I want it to display as:

    5 – 15miles

    I’ve looked at using CSS pseudo techniques but I don’t believe it works with select options because they are generated by the OS/Browser.

    Any help appreciated.

    Are you able to send me a live link/URL to your search page so I can take a look?

    Thanks for that. You have two choices. If you are unlikely to changing the options very often, you can change the population of the field in the form from Automatically to Manual. That way you can edit the labels, and also the order.

    If that will not work as the options may change a lot, then you would have to sue this filter to programmatically change them:

    Thank you, I’m using the Number Range option for the distance drop-down and that doesn’t have a manual entry option, if I switch to Choice then it does have manual entry but then it isn’t a range. So I assume the only way for this to work would be using the filter?.

    I’ve looked at the full example here:https://gist.github.com/rmorse/7b59b45a14b1ca179868

    I understand some PHP but this a little advanced for me, would changing the following postfix line work?:

    //add/override prefix & postfix to the field
    $input_object[‘prefix’] = “Prefix”;
    $input_object[‘postfix’] = “miles”;

    An alternative is to not use the PostFix option in the form, but add it using that filter to the label, not using the postfix code.

    Yes that’s what I’m trying to work out how to do.

    I would imagine the PHP would be something like:

    function add_miles_to_filter_labels($input_object, $sfid) {
  if(($input_object['name']!='_sfm_colours') {
    return $input_object;
  }
  foreach($input_object['options'] as $option) }
    $option->label .= " miles";
  }
  return $input_object;
}
add_filter('sf_input_object_pre', 'add_miles_to_filter_labels', 10, 2);

    where you change $sfid to the actual ID of the form AND
    where you change the string/name _sfm_colours to whatever the data_sf_field_name actually is, for example, see here:

    ok this is what I have so far:

    function add_miles_to_filter_labels($input_object, $2116) {
  if(($input_object['name']!='_sfm_distance[]') {
    return $input_object;
  }
  foreach($input_object['options'] as $option) }
    $option->label .= " miles";
  }
  return $input_object;
}
add_filter('sf_input_object_pre', 'add_miles_to_filter_labels', 10, 2);

    I’ve tried with and without the $ sign in front of the id, but I still get a parse error on the site.
