Actually, no there isn’t anything really that will do the work automatically. There are plugins out there that let you create the field and the templates in the back end for displaying them but ACF is not one of them. ACF is for those of us that are crazy enough to enjoy building custom themes and templates for WP.
I’ve seen a few people that are attempting to build page builder like plugins using ACF, but I haven’t seen anything complete listed anywhere.
ACF will actually let you use simple custom fields in the content editor, which is why I asked were you were trying to use them. You may have already seen this http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/shortcode/
The reason that the xml import probably did not work is that there are two database entries for each custom field and they both need to be there for ACF to work properly. The best explanation of these fields can be found in the documentation here http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/shortcode/
