Adding a new location for a field group programmatically

  • Hi, I have written a plugin which declares a custom fields group, complete with locations, in php. I am now using it on a site that uses an additional Custom Post Type and the options page, and I would like to add this Custom Field group to both. Do I have to add the options page and new CPT to the locations in the plugin, or can I add the new locations – and just the new locations – within my theme? Feels as if this might be something there is a filter for?

  • There is a filter hook acf/get_field_group I do not think that it is documented. It passes your filter the group array. You can use this to modify the location rules.

  • Wonderful, thank you! One of the things I love about ACF is that every time I find myself thinking “I wonder if there is a way to do X”, generally speaking, the answer is yes!
