About this plugin
WordPress plugin which adds Quick Edit functionality to Advanced Custom Fields Plugin ( Pro and Free 5+.

Supported ACF Fields.
- Supports Post, Term and User list tables
- Scalar Columns (Like Text, Number, …) can be made sortable

Known Limitations
- Bulk Edit seems to be incompatible with Search & Filter Pro @see Issue #145
- Might show a message if ACF Pro comes in bundle with another plugin. @see Issue #146
- The plugin is not tested against wooCommerce, so some issues may occur. @see Issue #135, Issue #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.
