publish_form_field_unique and clean input

Hey guys,

Hoping someone can point me in the right direction on this one.

Heres what I’m trying to do…

I’m trying to create an advanced custom field with numerous input boxes. The data from the custom field will be saved in a new db table and the original field value will be left blank.

It gets a little trickier because the input fields are named like this lg_inputs[‘question’], lg_inputs[‘answers’][]

So onto the issue…

When I try to access the $_POST global it seems I am getting a cleaned single dimension array. array(‘question’, ‘answers’)

Is there any way to get the original $_POST data?

One option I was considering was using the

publish_form_start

to reassign the $_POST variables to a global variable and then call that variable in the

publish_form_field_unique

extension.

Has anyone got any guidance on this one?
