Advanced Custom Fields Extended PRO

Advanced Custom Fields Extended PRO

ACF Extended PRO is a powerful extension to the Advanced Custom Fields plugin that enhances its capabilities dramatically—targeting power users, developers, and agencies. Created by developers for developers, this plugin adds hundreds of features across the ACF interface, including new field types, admin tools, form enhancements, dynamic fields, and advanced conditions.

One major enhancement is the addition of new field types like Button, Columns, File Size, Taxonomy Terms Selector, and several Pro-only options like Dynamic Post Types and Block Types. These field types are highly customizable and can be used across posts, users, taxonomies, and options pages.

From a backend perspective, ACF Extended introduces UI modules for organizing field groups using tabs and layouts. It also enhances field group logic with conditional visibility based on screen context, user roles, and field values—allowing truly dynamic admin experiences.

It adds better support for Forms, including frontend forms with AJAX submissions, validation, post creation, and field group selectors. These forms can be embedded anywhere using shortcodes or template tags, with full control over redirection, success messages, and user interaction.

For developers, ACF Extended PRO introduces Dynamic Post Types and Taxonomies directly from the WordPress admin. You can register CPTs and taxonomies with GUI, assign field groups to them, and avoid writing boilerplate code. It also improves field group duplication, synchronization, JSON export/import, and auto-synchronization with theme folders.

Performance is optimized with built-in local JSON support, and security is enforced through nonce checks, sanitization, and field-level access control. It works flawlessly with ACF Pro, Gutenberg, and REST API.

ACF Extended PRO is the ultimate enhancement for users who need fine-grained control over how ACF behaves, displays, and integrates. It replaces the need for several separate plugins by offering a true all-in-one ACF power-up.
