    When I use taxonomy to create a Search Form UI and select an ACF, it list the fields in my dropdown but they always have a zero value and there for are not searchable. Is there a fix?

    Sorry, correction. I am using Post Meta, not Taxonomy to select my ACF in the Search Form UI.

    when using ACF meta fields, make sure that the Meta key name does NOT start with an underscore _.

    ACF makes 3 meta keys for most fields. Only the one without the underscore will work.

    The meta key I am using does not start with an underscore. Any other ideas? Below are links to screenshots of the setup and what is being displayed.

    On the tabs at the top of the form setup, check nothing is in the Post Meta tab nor the categories tags etc tab.

    Thank you very much, I missed that in the documentation.
