Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Better Field Groups for ACF
Better Field Groups for ACF was originally developed to address the lack of custom display titles for field groups that would show more user-friendly names to content editors. After waiting years for this feature to be added to Advanced Custom Fields, we developed our own solution. Ironically, shortly after we completed our plugin development, ACF released this exact feature in version 6.6! However, we discovered that many users still needed a way to completely remove edit icons for a cleaner interface, so we pivoted Better Field Groups for ACF to focus on this specific need that ACF doesn't address.
Yes! Better Field Groups for ACF works seamlessly with both the Free version and Pro version of Advanced Custom Fields. The plugin detects whichever version you have installed and applies the interface improvements automatically.
Absolutely! Better Field Groups for ACF also works with Secure Custom Fields since SCF uses the same interface structure as Advanced Custom Fields. The plugin will detect either ACF or SCF and work accordingly.
No, Better Field Groups for ACF is completely safe and non-destructive. The plugin only adds CSS styling to hide edit icons - it doesn't modify any existing ACF functionality, database data, or field group configurations. You can activate and deactivate Better Field Groups for ACF safely with zero consequences to your content or field groups.
When you deactivate Better Field Groups for ACF, all edit icons will immediately become visible again exactly as they were before. No data is lost, no functionality is changed, and everything returns to the default ACF appearance instantly.
Better Field Groups for ACF only hides Field Group edit icons on post and page editing screens. Administrators and developers can still access field group settings through the normal ACF admin menu (Custom Fields > Field Groups). The plugin doesn't prevent access to field group management - it only removes the quick-edit icons from the content editing interface.
Yes! Better Field Groups for ACF only removes the edit icons from post editing screens. You can still access all field group settings by going to Custom Fields > Field Groups in your WordPress admin menu. All ACF functionality remains completely intact and accessible.
No, Better Field Groups for ACF is designed for optimal performance. The plugin only loads a small amount of CSS on post editing screens in the admin area, and has zero impact on your website's frontend performance. It's one of the most lightweight ACF enhancement plugins available.
Yes! Better Field Groups for ACF works with all post types including custom post types, pages, posts, and any other content type where ACF field groups are displayed. The clean interface improvement applies universally across your entire WordPress admin.
Better Field Groups for ACF is designed to be fully compatible with other ACF addon plugins and extensions. Since it only adds CSS to hide edit icons, it doesn't interfere with ACF's core functionality or other plugins that extend ACF capabilities.
