    You say you don't know where the problem is, but never state what the problem is. Also, where is the PHP code for the Admin AJAX endpoint? Is there a reason you used the legacy Admin AJAX endpoint instead of a modern REST API endpoint?

  • sorry forgot to write about the problem. when you look at the url lifecoachnearme.co.uk/… and click on any checkbox field . you will get the error , bad request 400. i have added the acf from code in by question above.

  • Can you include the code for the endpoint and the hooks that register it? This would be the code that implements Admin AJAX on the server side, not the frontend side/HTML markup. Also, when you test this are you logged in, or logged out? This might be a common issue you've ran into but it's impossible to tell without seeing the PHP code for the Admin AJAX handler ( it's also an issue that doesn't happen when using the modern REST API for AJAX )

  • added now, but remember this was working fine when last developer touched the code.

  • it was working in the condition that just filtering the user only on based of the checkbox. it mean in you are on the search page by any postal code and then you click any of the checkbox . it just display the database field. We need to display the data by zip code and then filter by the category. so another developer changed the code and it wont work any more. it may be the problem in getting the field name of form. //may be the problem in metakey metaKey = getParamFromUrl('pin_code'); url += '&acf['+metaKey+'][]='+thisVal;

The problem is your action names don't match

In your frontend code:

?action=find_coach';

But in your backend code:

    add_action('wp_ajax_search_coach', 'searchLifeCoach');
     add_action('wp_ajax_nopriv_search_coach', 'searchLifeCoach');

search_coach != find_coach, they have to match.

Note that if this code used the REST API, it would have given a 404 and stated the problem in human readable language, e.g.

{
    "code":"rest_no_route",
    "message":"No route was found matching the URL and request method",
    "data":{"status":404}
}
