After creating 20+ Field Groups and about 400 fields, one of the main features i’d love to see is the ability to move fields to other groups.
Say you have a group of 20 fields, and after making it, you see that 10 should really be under another group. Re-making all 10 is annoying, and the ability to just checkbox them and say ‘Move to ….’ would be amazing.
Love everything else this plugin does!
Hi @aaronrobb
Yes, this would be very useful and I will add it to the to-do
Thanks

Hi guys,
This is going to be part of v5!
Very exiting.
Thanks

Excellent! This is a much wanted feature!

Will we be able to use this on older fields/field groups after the upgrade to v5?
Thanks!
Hi @jmh
Can you please elaborate what you mean by this? As in, upgrade to v5 and continue using your field groups from v4?
Just wondering if the new move fields feature in v5 will be backwards compatible for fields that were created in v4?
Hi @aaronrobb
Yes, you will be able to upgrade from v4 to v5 and then move fields around, however you won’t then be able to downgrade back to v4.
Thanks

thanks, looking forward to that feature!
must have feature…. thanks elliot..
Did it work out or is there a different official way to accomplish this?
Hi Dushan,
this feature was implemented in version 5 of ACF. Check it out.
Ah, I had not noticed the little new „move“-link unter the field-name. Little link, great functionality… thanks! 🙂
