It depends how you set everything up. I assume you have the following repository added:
{
"type": "package",
"package": {
"name": "advanced-custom-fields/advanced-custom-fields-pro",
"version": "5.4.1",
"type": "wordpress-plugin",
"dist": {
"type": "zip",
"url": "https://connect.advancedcustomfields.com/index.php?p=pro&a=download"
},
"require": {
"philippbaschke/acf-pro-installer": "^1.0",
"composer/installers": "^1.0"
}
}
}
Please notice that package.dist.url
does not contain the version number (acf-pro-installer
will add it automatically).
You definitely need to update the package.version
field to the new desired version.
If you require an exact version like this:
"require": {
"advanced-custom-fields/advanced-custom-fields-pro": "5.4.1"
}
then you need to update the version there as well.
If you just require any version like this:
"require": {
"advanced-custom-fields/advanced-custom-fields-pro": "*"
}
you can just leave it like this.
ACF PRO should be updated when you run composer update
now.
Please let me know if you have any problems when you use this procedure. Please provide the content of your composer.json
file to make debugging easier. 🙂

ACF wouldn’t be so widely used in WordPress if it didn’t have some pretty amazing capabilities. In this article, we look at a few of the features we’ll discuss during “7 things you didn’t know you could do with ACF” at #WPEDecode later this month. https://t.co/5lnsTxp81j pic.twitter.com/Yf0ThPG1QG
