ACF Blocks Overview

ACF has a handy feature for creating custom blocks. There are, of course, pros and cons. Experience with the feature is limited. I will add to this page as more is discovered.

Pros

  • Low learning curve
  • Speed
  • Familiar interface and functionality

Cons

  • Limited UI features and access to native Block modules
  • Editor style issue. See ACF Button page.
  • ACF Field Group must be imported before block can be used. This creates a dependency.
