When using a Bricks form with the “Update Post” action to edit an existing post that already contains an ACF image field, the existing image is correctly loaded into the form (the field is populated).
However, after saving the form without changing the image, the image is treated as if it were empty — it gets removed from the post entirely.
This means that every time the user updates the post via the form, the image is unintentionally deleted.
Additional issue:
If the user removes the existing image in the form (using the “Remove” button), it becomes impossible to upload a new image afterward — clicking the upload area and selecting a new image does not load the image into the form anymore.
However, replacing the existing image before removing it (e.g., by selecting a different image directly) does work as expected.
BTW: The Staging-Environment I set up for the other issue is still valid. (
