    I am using ACF with a custom post type and I added a start date and an end date fields. These custom post types are a kind of events, that’s why they have a start and an end date…
    When I try to search the custom posts based on the start date, I get no results. Instead if I search using the title of a custom post, I do get the results.
    Any help, please?

    Thanks!

    When selecting the meta key in the field select list for them, does the one you chose start with an underscore? It should not for ACF fields.

    Wow…that was so simple! it solved the issue. stupid me, I haven’t thought the meta field will appear twice in the drop-down list: first with the underscore and the second time without the underscore. Obviously changing with the one without the underscore did the trick and now it’s working! Thanks for the quick reply, Trevor!
