Getting Started
Blocks for ACF Fields is a WordPress plugin that lets you display Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) and Secure Custom Fields (SCF) directly inside the Block Editor using a single, flexible block.
Instead of creating custom blocks, writing PHP, or manually referencing field names, you simply add the ACF Field block and select the field you want to display from a smart dropdown. The plugin automatically detects which fields are available based on the post, template, or context you’re editing, making it fast and error-free to work with custom fields.
The plugin is designed to be read-only. It focuses purely on rendering field values in the editor and on the front end, while field creation and data management remain fully handled by ACF or SCF.
Minimum Requirements
| PHP Version | 7.4 |
| WordPress Version | 6.5 |
| ACF/SCF Version | 6.1.0 |
How to use the plugin
Create a field group and assign it to a location
Set up the field group using ACF’s standard location rules for posts, users, terms, or options pages. No additional block-specific registration or special configuration is required.
Insert the “ACF Field” block in the editor
While editing a page or template, add the ready-to-use block that already supports all field types. No need to create a custom block, build a template file, or write PHP to register anything.
Select the field to display
Pick the field from a filtered list that only shows the fields available for the current page or template. No need to type field names manually or guess which fields belong to the content.
Style the output visually
Apply styling options directly in the editor while the block automatically handles any field return format setting. No need to enqueue CSS, write custom styles, or manage separate frontend and backend asset files.
