With the advent of Gutenberg in WordPress, Advanced Custom Fields stepped up to help make the process of creating custom blocks easier and faster. This plugin creates a set of custom blocks with basic styles for you to customize.
You'll find information around installation and getting started below. Start there to get everything installed and working. Once that's done, go here for more detailed documentation.
This plugin includes the following blocks:
- Accordion
- Call to Action
- Cards (Repeater, up to 3)
- Carousel
- Logo Grid
- Quotes
- Side-by-Side
- Tabs
WDS ACF Blocks is bundled with Style Lint, ESLint, and PHPCS linting rulesets – plus, it passes both WCAG 2.1AA and Section 508 standards out of the box. This plugin uses WP Scripts to handle the build process for the blocks.
To better manage ACF Field Groups, the plugin supports synchronized JSON for Advanced Custom Fields.
Because the plugin compiles and bundles assets via NPM scripts, basic knowledge of the command line and the following dependencies are required: Node LTS and NPM.
This plugin relies entirely on Advanced Custom Fields Pro 6.0+ for WordPress. The Pro version is required, along with a version greater than > 6.0 - it will not work with any ACF 5.x version. Additonally, the WebDevStudios theme
wd_sis required - there are dependencies in the theme that this plugin relies on.
