  • Best plugin to display ACF fields on templates

    Hi Best plugin to display ACF fields on templates / query loops Works great / fast / native Good job !

  • Does the job

    I wasted a load of time trying to get ACF displaying on the front end, not being a developer I couldn't get it to display my content. This did actually work, I just put the block in the page theme. However it was a bit odd in how it worked, taking a second to load, and the url field would only output on button mode. I wasn't totally convinced it was up the the job for the client I was assisting, so I ditched ACF and moved to a directory plugin.I think this plugin is great but a better solution would be for ACF to have some free blocks and stop being ... annoying.... Good on you for making this plugin, thanks!
