Changelog

v.1.12.2

Hotfix - infinite update notice loop.

 

v1.12.1

Hotfix to fix regression in ACF 5.7.11 which produced a fatal error if ACF Widgets was activated. Please update immediately before updating ACF core!

 

Thanks to Mitch for submitting the bug report.

 

v1.12

First release in a long time. Luckily ACF and ACFW have been stable for a while. A recent change in ACF version 5.6.6 caused a display issue with user created widgets. That bug has been fixed.

As Gutenberg approaches merge in to core, I'll be looking closely at compatibility and we'll see how long it makes sense to keep supporting ACF Widgets. Potentially, blocks may end up taking the place of widgets if that functionality is ever built into sidebars. Until then, I'll be doing my best to maintain compatibility.

I've added a new action and filter to the widget factory for ACFW. If another plugin is throwing an error when registering a widget, it may be doing something custom behind the scenes that ACFW does not support in it's implementation. You can use these hooks to modify which widgets are registered by the ACFW Widget Factory.

The fixes for this release:

  • ACF Pro v5.6.6 compatibility
  • New action and filter for the widget factory. See includes/ACFW_Widget_Factory.php:19

Thank you for your continued patience and for supporting an indie developer!

 

v1.11

  • Customizer Support Fixed (see notes)
  • Composer Support Added
  • WordPress 4.7 Compatibility Tested

A few things to note about this version. You must be using an updated version of ACF Pro to get Customizer support. I did not do a major version bump because this is not a breaking change for this plugin. However, if you are using an outdated version of ACF Pro, do not expect the customizer functionality to work as intended. All other functionality should perform as expected.

Apologies for the late release! Personal life has been hectic. I appreciate your continued support!
