ACF Theme Code for Advanced Custom Fields

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 93% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Modeled within the band wp.org reports; tightens as we track daily.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price.

Developers using ACF call this a straight time saver, generating the PHP for custom fields and ACF blocks so they can copy, paste, and move on.

   Yes, there’s the awesome code for each custom field, but where this really shines for me is the ease at creating the code to register my custom ACF blocks! I recommend this plugin to other developers constantly! It makes my workflow more efficient and delightful! This topic was modified 4 years, 8 months ago by Alicia St Rose.

   If you’re using Advanced Custom Fields (ACF), then you gotta get this plugin! It’s such a HUGE time saver. When you create your ACF fields, this plugin will automatically generate the PHP code you’ll need, to use those fields in your theme/plugin. No more Googling to search for the correct function to implement your ACF fields. This plugin will save you so much time! Great work guys! 👍👍

   Si eres desarrollador y usas ACF este plugin es perfecto porque tienes todo el PHP necesario con simplemente hacer copia pega. Aunque para campos de texto y otros quizás no sea necesario porque las funciones de ACF son sencillas de recordar, cuando construyes estructuras más complejas con campos de repetición, por ejemplo, te ahorra mucho tiempo. Lo copias, lo pegas en tu función de tu tema o plugin y ya puedes mostrar los datos en pantalla.
