Hi Guys,

I am using the editor field in a widget which i add via the Customizer and i am trying to change the buttons output from the Text mode using the ‘quicktags_settings’ filter:

function filter_editor_quicktags( $qtInit ) {
   $qtInit['buttons'] = 'strong,em,block';
   return $qtInit;
}
add_filter('quicktags_settings', 'filter_editor_quicktags');

This code changes the buttons in the editor across the whole admin: posts, pages and widgets.

Is there a way to use this code, but target only the ACF editor field?

The quicktags_settings filter accepts 2 params, and that second one is $editor_id. Default value for native WP editor is content. ACF editor field, unsurprisingly, has the value of acf_content.

function filter_editor_quicktags( $qtInit, $editor_id )
{
	if ( $editor_id === 'acf_content' ) {
		$qtInit['buttons'] = 'strong,em,block';
	}

	return $qtInit;
}
add_filter( 'quicktags_settings', 'filter_editor_quicktags', 10, 2 );
