Hi there! Opening this thread as a public topic, although it’s actually for the development team of ACF:

Could you guys add a WP CLI command to sync all ACF field groups to the ACF core? This would come in very handy for automated synchronization between various environmetns. I have build a little plugin that does this, but really think that it would be a very nice feature to have officially supported.

Here’s a gist of my plugin: https://gist.github.com/hirasso/c48c04def92f839f6264349a1be773b3

Install it and call the command like this:

wp rhau acf-sync-field-groups

(rhau is just my namespace for all my custom wp cli commands).

The development team does not routinely visit this forum, you need to send feature requests to them here https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/contact/

Thanks @hube2 , I have also written to the ACF team directly. Just thought that until the feature lands in ACF, my little plugin could come in handy for other users as well.

I have already received a reply from the ACF devs. They will consider introducing a similar functionality in ACF core! 🎉
