  • Great addon to ACF functionality

    Used it to quickly add the flexible set of WP widgets to the page edit admin screen within minutes. ACF Page Builder Field works like a charm. The great interface between ACF and Page Builer without excessive Page Builder UI but with all its power avaiuilable and controlled by ACF. Thank you a lot, guys:)

  • Some options in Google Maps not being saved

    I tried testing this and would have been ok ok if not for the fact that the very feature I need is wonky. Google Maps is not saving the custom style, and cannot deactivate zoom scroll and dragging action. Had to revert back to hard coding the Google Maps JS API.

  • Breaks the rest of my page builder layout

    Appends an id to all page builder elements on a post/page, including those not generated with the support of this plugin. Causes Page Builder styling to be blown away, as the plugin styles on a per id basis, and anyhow this plugin shouldn't have a hand in anything that it isn't supposed to be directly associated with.
