Screenshots

  • Text field example
  • In the field attributes go to 'Wrapper Attributes -> class', type 'acfgo' and click 'update'.
  • Insert your text field's code like you do normally, no changes here.
  • In the 'Edit Page', insert any value for your text field.
  • Click the pencil edit icon near your field's frontend content.
  • Review the existing content.

Installation

Developer:
– Go to the relevant ACF field group.
– Find the field you wish to turn front-end editable.
– On ‘Wrapper Attributes’ add the class ‘acfgo’.
– Save the changes.

User:
– Visit a page that has an editable text field
– Click the small, blue pencil icon near the content you wish to update.
– Enter new content, click ‘Update’.
– That’s it! The new content is now set and is updated also in the DB.

FAQ

I have installed and activated the plugin, but I still can’t see any changes on the frontend, why is that?

Please make sure to put ‘acfgo’ in the target field’s class. You can do so by going to the field’s field-group page, then in the field attributes go to ‘Wrapper Attributes -> class’, type ‘acfgo’ and click ‘update’.

What kind of ACF fields are supported?

Right now the plugin works only for non-repeater text fields. We’re working on adding functionality to more kinds of fields.

How is this different than a standard ACF Frontend Form? <?php acf_form_head(); ?> <?php acf_form([YOUR PARAMS]); ?>

Great little plugin that does exactly what is says it will. Still new, but will hopefully grow in functionality and design. Allowing the user to customise the input box css styles would also be great.

I loved the idea of this plugin. It's awesome! I'm forward to see how much you'll improve it in the future.
