I was checking out ACF the other day and was blown away by how much power it adds to wordpress. Now this tutorial makes it absolutely easy for people like me interested in learning to create custom dynamic websites in wordpress. Thank you.

[@wesonweb]

I was moving my custom blocks out of my theme into a plugin and this tutorial was really helpful. Thank you!

Very Clearly explained - your explanation is very Good, Keep it up 👍

[@mateuszb4387]

so cool! Advanced usage of acf is what makes me very happy!

[@TechiePress]

I like ACF. Do you use it on the daily for your projects?

[@mateuszb4387]

@@TechiePress just beginning with simple cases (combined with oxygen builder) but I would love to switch to gutenberg+acf. You are a great teacher, your stuff about WooCommerce is top-notch and unique, just wow.

[@marcokielenschede]

Thank you very much, great tutorial!

[@TechiePress]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Riouken]

You are the best!!

[@MrPanzerDragoon]

At 7:55, THANK YOU so much for explaining why these blocks are now in the plugins folder. I started a new job and have never touched Gutenberg (last time I used WordPress was before Gutenberg) and now it makes sense why it's not in the themes folder and why it should be in the plugins folder!

[@TechiePress]

Congrats on the new job. The location of things haven’t changed since Classic editor days. If you find WordPress not so usable for your case, try ClassicPress.net or the classic editor

[@mevthawk]

Thanks for video

[@jimmypham9951]

Cool. Thank you for this helpfull video. I hope u also make more a videos with WordPress and acf

[@TechiePress]

I sure am. Thanks for watching. ACF is super interesting.

[@RogerioOrioli]

this is a fuck amazing , thanx a lot

[@lionelgibaudan3592]

Great tutorial.... very interesting.. Then, It Seems that ACF Pro has evolved, the acf_register_block_type() function looks like it's deprecated? Here is what the ACF doc says: Since ACF 6.0, We recommend you register blocks with the new block.json syntax syntax rather than the legacy acf_register_block_type() detailed here.

[@TechiePress]

Thanks for this. I will be making a follow up video to fix this.

[@yoscbd]

Thank you for a great video!!!, In terms of performance - Is there a different between using ACF vs Using react modules of Gutenberg and write this functionality without using ACF?

[@TechiePress]

Yes, using react will be relatively slower in development for each component but you can do this completely. I have a starter series for native Gutenberg development kzbin.info/aero/PLNqG1qGUllk0hREdRiz4dCkXCz2UPtOHE

[@dragonspirit254]

I'm on wordpress 6, and the wp_enqueue_assets() is loading the block style in the wordpress backend, but not the that the preview is in.. styles are not working. I can't figure out how to get the styles to work on the preview.

[@TechiePress]

I noticed this as an issue I am yet to research well. Have you tried to wp_enqueue_style() the file via the template? That also helps

[@KariposTheOne]

I'm trying to modify a block, I want to add another text field to an existing block, with a default value, but the default value doesn't show on the frontend only in the backend

[@TechiePress]

What do you mean by existing block? Is it a core block?

[@KariposTheOne]

@@TechiePress I created a custom block using ACF, called "hero section", which includes a text field and background image. I now need to add a select box for two different height options. Although I set a default value, it does not appear in the frontend for unknown reasons.

[@russellazim6589]

If i want to make any gutenburg blocks level theme , how i do that

[@TechiePress]

I have a series planned for this coming soon.
