## Disgrifiad

WordPress plugin which adds Quick Edit functionality to Advanced Custom Fields Plugin(
[Pro](http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/pro/) and [Free 5+](https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-custom-fields/).

#### Features

 * Show ACF field values in List views
    [Supported ACF Fields](https://github.com/mcguffin/acf-quickedit-fields/wiki/Feature-Support-Matrix#supported-acf-fields).
 * Supports Post, Term and User list tables
 * Scalar Columns (Like Text, Number, …) can be made sortable
 * Edit ACF Field values in Quick edit and Bulk edit

#### Known Limitations

 * Bulk Edit seems to be incompatible with [Search & Filter Pro](https://searchandfilter.com/)
   @see [Issue #145](https://github.com/mcguffin/acf-quickedit-fields/issues/145)
 * Might show a message if ACF Pro comes in bundle with another plugin. @see [Issue #146](https://github.com/mcguffin/acf-quickedit-fields/issues/145)
 * The plugin is not tested against wooCommerce, so some issues may occur. @see 
   [Issue #135](https://github.com/mcguffin/acf-quickedit-fields/issues/135), [Issue #173](https://github.com/mcguffin/acf-quickedit-fields/issues/173).
   I will happily accept pull request, fixing such issues.

#### Usage

#### In the Fieldgroup editor:

**Column View:**

 * _Show Column_ will sho a column in the WP List Table.
 * _Sortable Column_ will make the column sortable. This only works with primitive
   Field types like Text, Number, Range and so on.
 * _Column weight_ gives you an option to take control of the column order. The 
   higher the weight, the more to the right the column will be. Present columns 
   will have defaults weights of multiples of 100 starting with zero for the checkbox
   column. For example to place an image column between the checkbox (column weight
   = 0) and title (column weight = 100) choose a value between 0 and 100.
 * _Filter_ add a filter to the posts users or terms list.

**Editing**

Toggle _QuickEdit_ and _Bulk Edit_ to enable Editing in the list table view.

**Searching**

Enable _Backend Search_ to make a field searchable in the list table view.

**Location Rules**

The plugin follows ACFs location rule logic as far as possible. If you have a field
group that is only applies to posts in a specific category or with a certain post
starus, then columns and quick edit will only show up, if you have filtered the 
posts by that category ar post status.

Negative rules (like “Post category _is not_ equal to X”) will not work – simply
because the WP does not provide an admin view for “Posts not in category X”.

With the _Simplifed Location Rules_ option enabled for a field group only the post
type or taxonomy rules are applied. Any other rule ist skipped. This allows you 
to always show and edit the fields in list views, regardless of the current list
filter. The downside is, that this can make even those fields editable, that are
normally hidden in the pst editor.

**Conditional Logic**

Conditional logic is not supported.

## Gosod

Just follow the [Automatic Plugin Installation](https://wordpress.org/support/article/managing-plugins/#automatic-plugin-installation)
procedere.

### When will you support the Non-ACF Field XYZ?

Presumbly I won’t. However, there are some [plugin filters and actions](https://github.com/mcguffin/acf-quickedit-fields/wiki/Plugin-Filters)
that might come in handy, if you decide to write an implementation by yourself.

I even wrote a [tutorial page](https://github.com/mcguffin/acf-quickedit-fields/wiki/Tutorial:-Custom-Field-Integration)
on how to write our own field type integration.

### I’m having trouble.

Please use the issues section in the [GitHub-Repository](https://github.com/mcguffin/acf-quickedit-fields/issues).
A well described issue that can be reproduced quickly is more likely to be fixed
quickly.

I will most likely not maintain the support forum on wordpress.org. Anyway, other
users might have an answer for you, so it’s worth a shot.

### I’m having trouble with WooCommerce.

Welcome to the world of commerce.

If you are located in the EU, you can [hire me](https://flyingletters.net) for the
usual market price of an IT guy in central europe.

Outside the EU you can try to fix it yourself or find someone who does. I will likely
accept well crafted and tested pull request in the [GitHub-Repository](https://github.com/mcguffin/acf-quickedit-fields).

### I’d like to suggest a feature. Where should I post it?

THe plugin does exactly what it should do. Allows the addition of ACF filds to the
Quick edits of items in WP post lists and custom post type lists. Awesome!

This plugin is golden! It saves you so much time by editing custom post’s fields

This is a great and fundamental tool to access custom fields in the post editor 
list. You can also choose which fields appear in the list, which ones only for quick
edit and also in the backend search box. Overall, an amazing extension for ACF. 
Thanks a lot!

The first issue I found was 1) the quick edit fields don’t save correctly – the 
spinner justs keeps spinning. If you do click out of it, it seems the field was 
edited but pretty clunky and not quick. The main issue was when I tried bulk editing
a field, I got a critical error that broke my site. Does have some nice features
but can’t rely on this plugin to be on my site
