Advanced Custom Fields Component Field Addon 2.0.10
Advanced Custom Fields Component Field Addon is a WordPress plugin addon for ACF that helps you create component-style custom fields for modular page building. Organize complex layouts with reusable field groups, keep content structured, and streamline editor workflows for faster, more consistent updates across your site.
Description
The Advanced Custom Fields Component Field Addon extends WordPress’s Advanced Custom Fields by introducing a component-based field approach. It helps you structure content into repeatable “components,” keeping related data together instead of spreading it across many separate fields. This is especially useful when building custom themes or template kits that render flexible page layouts. With a component-focused field model, editors can manage complex content more clearly while developers keep template data easier to work with.
Use it when you want cleaner content modeling with ACF on posts, pages, and custom post types, while improving how structured fields map to your front-end templates.
Main Features
- Component field type — Adds a component-style field to Advanced Custom Fields for grouping related inputs.
