Can we have hierarchical custom fields using ACF?
Hi @shobhit,
Thanks for the question.
I am not sure I am clear on what you mean by hierarchical custom fields but with ACF it is possible to nest fields within other fields.
The parent field should be a flexible content field or a Repeater field.
Please have a look at these pages for more info: http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/repeater/ and http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/flexible-content/
Hi James,
I think I might want the same thing @shobhit is looking for:
I’m looking for an interface very much the same as WP menu. Creating an item (A) and then a sub item (A1), where A1 is a child of A. So one would be able to drag and drop the items into any hierarchy, however deep (3 or 4 levels): i.e.
custom field A
– custom field A1
— custom field A1.1
— custom field A1.2
— custom field A1.2.1
custom field B
– custom field B1
— custom field B1.1
— custom field B1.1.1
(drag and drop to alter hierarchies…)
P.S. it would be great if “custom field” above could be a repeater field where the row contains multiple fields…
Thanks

Hi there,
Is there an answer for this?
I also need to use the Parent – Child hierarchy setup.
