Install & Update Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) Free – Avoid SCF Confusion!
In this video, I'll guide you through the recent rebranding of Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) and the introduction of Secure Custom Fields (SCF) in the WordPress.org repository.
If you're an ACF Free user, you might be confused by the changes when updating your plugin. But don't worry! I'll help you understand the difference between ACF, managed by WP Engine, and SCF, which comes from Automattic.
Follow these steps to ensure you're using the official ACF plugin:
1. Download the latest ACF version from WP Engine's official site.
2. Manually upload and install the correct version in WordPress.
3. Set up future updates to come from the right source.
Whether you've been using an older version of ACF or accidentally switched to SCF, this video will get you back on track with the real ACF plugin!
