    Hi Craig. This is an ACF field and you have placed a Meta field in the form for this? Does the name of the field in the select box show with an underscore before it, or just the name you gave it? It should not have the underscore normally.

    I need to get a better handle on what it is you are doing and how the form is setup. Is it possible to get some screenshots of the General And Display Results tabs, and of the setup of the meta field?

    Hi, Ross just sent me the email you sent to our no-reply address, I think 🙁 Our forum does not have a ‘reply by email’ option 🙁

    The acf field is shown in the screenshots as _vdata_rank

    If you scroll down in that select box, does vdata_rank (no preceding underscore) also appear?

    Awesome support! I didn’t even see the no_reply address.

    But thank you! That was it, working perfectly now. Might be more overhead than its worth but could there be a setting to hide/show values with a leading _ or maybe mark them as red or gray, or even sort them to the bottom?

    Fully aware if I would have been paying attention this wouldn’t have been an issue, but stupid proofing 🙂 would be cool.

    Trouble is, I think SOME underscore meta names are valid. I can mark the thread as resolved and close this?

    Yeah, thank you for your help.
