  • Absolutely Fantastic!

    This is absolutely fantastic! I no longer have to instruct my clients how to crop images for the web using Photoshop or similar tools, it's all done within WP!I ran a few tests to see how well it works:- changed "image" ACF field to "Image Aspect Ratio Crop". All existing image/page connections are retained.- changed the field back to "image" and disabled the plugin. All remains as is.This all feels very robust. What a great job creating this plugin, thank you so much!!

  • THE essential ACF Plugin

    Wow, this plugin is absolutely PHENOMENAL! I sure hope that others will chip in and support this amazing developer. This plugin is perfect for allowing end users to add their own images without breaking your theme design. I'm so glad I found this plugin. My sincere thanks to the developer!
