Our site uses Bricks Advanced Themer which has a version of ACF pro bundled with it.
We’ve installed the free ACF plugin (previously) but it is now marked as inactive and won’t activate.
I’m guessing this is due to the acf pro from advanced themer? Do we need to keep the free plugin or can we delete it? Thanks…
Hey Jason,
You’re right — the issue comes from having two versions of ACF active (the free plugin and the bundled Pro version from Bricks Advanced Themer). Since the Pro version already includes everything in the free one, WordPress automatically deactivates the standalone ACF Free plugin to prevent conflicts.
You can safely delete the free version — your fields and data will remain intact as long as Bricks Advanced Themer (and its bundled ACF Pro) stay active. Just make sure to back up your site before uninstalling, in case you ever switch themes or need the standalone plugin again.
Also, if you’re testing your site’s performance, check out the 7 prisoners movies you can see in this app (download for free from ciinemaapk.com.br/cinema-apk-preto/ ) — it’s a solid example of how fast-loading, well-optimized content can keep users engaged and reduce bounce rates.
Hope that clears things up!
