Great options. I did something similar as an experimental test, for the eventuality that I have to dump Toolset. You create the same post types in ACF and then recreate the same fields, either by adding the ts or wpcf prefix to the names of the originals. This more or less gets the basics back up and running. The only thing I didn’t get to was relationships between post types. I didn’t see relationships in the export demo, maybe it’s there in the pro version. It all begs the question why a lot of this stuff isn’t standard within core with better interoperability between all these plugins. The same should apply to the tools we use for content creation and layout. Wordpress has been missing a lot of tricks for far too long now.
Nothing brings innovation fast than in times of war... This war between matt and wpe, could be the exact kick up the arse WP needs to have 'ACF' functionality within the core, lol...
Awesome stuff here Paul. Thank you. Just wondering, is there a possibility to transition from ACF to Jet Engine? If the PHP can be extracted, can it be used for Jet Engine in any way?🤔
To be honest, I haven't tried. Some of the ACF data should function like JetEngine, but there are also some things that are either not in JE or are different, so I would assume it would be dependant on the actual project setup.
Please: is it possible for me to create something like this with jet engines: i created a multi vendor store where vendor can create products. Now i add new cpt ( event). This cpt is the place and time they want to sell their product, which also can be also created from the front end from by each vendor. But the main thing is there will be a relationship between the product (child) and the event (parent). And when creating the event on the front end they should be able to do this and also the only product they can add to their event should be the one they created. If it is possible how will i go about it
These are great solutions. Plus if you study the code it's not too difficult to extend it so you can add fields and post types without needing extra plugins.
Would it be possible to do a video going through all of the potential plugins that might have to change based upon Matt and Silverlake's pissing contest? We see ACF mentioned, but that is far from the extent of the software owned by Silverlake that is at risk of the standoff becoming permanent.
Even if they do, I would be incredibly surprised if it came close to what you can do with ACF. It'll be a basic implementation with simple fields and CPTs and nothing more. Besides all that, with the amount of time it's take to get Gutenberg and FSE to where it is now (8 years), how long would we realistically have to wait to get a solid ACF alternative built in as a natiove and well implemented alternative?
This is completely inaccurate 👎 This will register custom post types and taxonomies but you will lose all your custom fields. The code you are pasting uses acf_add_local_field_group() which is only defined if you have the ACF plugin activated. You should take this down.
You may want to check your facts, buddy. All the custom data is intact when swapping from the ACF plugin to one of the methods demonstrated. So, you may need to remove YOUR post as it is inaccurate.
@@WPTuts Paul, your field group "Course Additional Fields" won't be editable in the admin. Do you really think there's a function called acf_add_local_field_group() in WordPress core?
@@felixfeefelix I have literally just tested it and new posts are added to the CPT, along with new taxonomies, content, etc., and added to the WP dashbaord.
Nice Paul, I've done just this when handing a site to a client who wanted to use a different developer.
I have been gone for a bit, now i need to go find the drama first for this to make sense. Great video as usual Paul
This is brilliant, no dependency on WPEngine / ACF updates and blockage
Brilliant video! I love this
Think I’ll let the drama play out for the moment. Great videos though thank you
Thank you so much for this video

Very helpful. Thx!!
I don't understand why people forget about CMB2. It's amazing.
Piece of cake* - I got you Paul
Fantastic!
What about front-end ACF forms submits, like survey forms, user media uploads, etc? Is this managed by the php code?
Hey Paul, would love to hear what your thoughts are on ACPT now after all the new changes. Love the work!
Are there any security concerns you have to take into consideration when you create your own plugin?

Wow, nice video

To be honest, I haven't tried. Some of the ACF data should function like JetEngine, but there are also some things that are either not in JE or are different, so I would assume it would be dependant on the actual project setup.
And, do not forget to go through all PHP files where you are using ACF functions to display the data and swap with alternative ones.
Omg. Paul, this is absolute gold. Thank you.
My pleasure - glad you found it useful. :)

That's the great thing about WPtuts, Paul will never let you hang, if the Pronounial (never mind verbs) hits the fan....Thank you Paul

Thanks Matt😅
Also ACPT now cost for life 199 with 20% sale
is there a discount code for this or after discount is 199? do share the code
@@flyjazz1996 there is
ACPT_2024_PROMO_20
This is why wp needs to speed up development and rollout their own acf

Matt needs to step down
Lol😂
What if he abandon the wordpress project?
Dont be such a drama queen, lol

No you will not lose anything. I migrated from ACF to Jet without losing any data.

@@LuminousLorien now your claim raises some scepticism. I will check that as I know jet engine post types use their own database.
