## Description

This plugin will add a page builder field type in Advanced custom fields.
 The field
works just like any other ACF field type and you can use it however you want. `get_field()`
returns the generated HTML and the CSS is outputed in the footer. We are using it
together with ACFs flexible content layouts where you want to build more advanced
layouts inside the ACF sections. This makes the content in ACFs flexible content
truly flexible!

Building a great CMS-experience for editors, designers and developers is really 
hard. They all have very different requirements and ideas about that a great CMS
consists of and how it should work. How do you give the editors the tools they need
to edit all the content, the designer the freedom they want about how things should
look, and empower the developer with tools to provide this easily and efficently?

We think we have found a sweet spot when ut comes to the balance between freedom
for for editors and designers and ease for developers to implement and maintain 
a beatifull site.

#### The editor

The editor can easily edit all the content and maintain a good look and feel of 
the website. The editor has the right amunt of freedom to be able to express themselfts,
but enough structure to prevent them from going wild and ruin the page layout and
design.

#### The designer

The designer can be creative and has the freedom they need express themselfs without
making the life for the developers hard.

#### The developer

The developer have the tools to easily create blocks/modules that fits good together.

#### Requirements

 * Advanced Custom Fields 5+ (ACF 4 is not supported)
 * Page Builder by SiteOrigin 2.5 or newer
 * PHP 5.3+

#### Theme integration

We recommend using this plugin together with ACF Flexible Content for building beautiful
landing pages.
 This is an example of a template using ACF Flexible Content:

    ```
    if( have_rows('flexible_content_field_name') ) :

        while ( have_rows('flexible_content_field_name') ) : the_row();

            switch( get_row_layout() ) {

                case 'page_builder_layout':

                    if( get_sub_field( 'page_builder_field' ) ) {
                        echo get_sub_field( 'page_builder_field' );
                    }

                    break;
                case 'other_layout':

                    the_sub_field('field1');
                    the_sub_field('field2');

                    break;
            }

        endwhile;

    endif;
    ```

For more information, read about [flexible content on advancedcustomfields.com](http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/flexible-content/).

We also recommend using one of the latest versions of WordPress, Advanced Custom
Fields and Page Builder by SiteOrigin at all times for best compatibility.

#### Known issues and limitations

 * Use of ACF Page Builder field in widget areas. We aim to fix this in a comming
   release.
 * Does not work on ACF Option pages. We aim to fix this in a comming release.
 * Some issues with Page Builder content in `the_content()`(normal post content)
   if an ACF Page Builder field is rendered before `the_content()`. This is due 
   to the way the page builder works and we can’t fix this in a good way. We recommend
   using ACF Page Builder fields instead and removing the normal post content completely
   on ACF-pages in WP-Admin as a workaround.

## Screenshots

 * [[
 * This shows the field in WP-Admin. The page builder button opens up a Page Builder,
   just like the normal one from Site Origin.

 [wherejuly](https://profiles.wordpress.org/wherejuly/) సెప్టెంబర్ 14, 2018

Used it to quickly add the flexible set of WP widgets to the page edit admin screen
within minutes. ACF Page Builder Field works like a charm. The great interface between
ACF and Page Builer without excessive Page Builder UI but with all its power avaiuilable
and controlled by ACF. Thank you a lot, guys:)

I tried testing this and would have been ok ok if not for the fact that the very
feature I need is wonky. Google Maps is not saving the custom style, and cannot 
deactivate zoom scroll and dragging action. Had to revert back to hard coding the
Google Maps JS API.

 [elizoliva](https://profiles.wordpress.org/elizoliva/) అక్టోబర్ 27, 2016

Appends an id to all page builder elements on a post/page, including those not generated
with the support of this plugin. Causes Page Builder styling to be blown away, as
the plugin styles on a per id basis, and anyhow this plugin shouldn’t have a hand
in anything that it isn’t supposed to be directly associated with.
