Thank you @hube2 ! That solved my issue!
@John Huebner – What you suggested is what I wound up doing. I guess I forgot to post back here that I solved this. Thanks so much for your helpful suggestion!
I found the “current screen ID” (options page screen ID) by using this code:
function find_current_screen_id() {
global $my_admin_page;
$screen = get_current_screen();
echo $screen->id;
}
add_action( 'admin_notices', 'find_current_screen_id' );
Unfortunately, I cannot place the “instructions box” under the page title “Global” (See image below). Any ideas?
@davelee – Personally, I’m Ok with a “page builder” that uses shortcodes to generate / organize content, just as long as I don’t have to put the shortcodes in by hand. I’m trying to think from my client’s perspective (no programming skills, or nunchuck skills… JK).
I’ve tested:
- Azexo Composer
- BoxBuilder (not yet released)
- Unyson Page Builder
- Visual Composer
So far, BoxBuilder and Unyson are the best. They only give me / my client what’s truly needed, and don’t offer too many unnecessary, confusing, and possibly design-destroying features such as border style options and font choices (never give those options to a client! Given the opportunity, they will ruin the design and the readability of their own site and not even realize it!). Right now, I’m leaning toward BoxBuilder, but it hasn’t been released yet.
@atomicsmash (Dave) – I’d like to give your flexible content / page builder a go… I’ve been testing 5 other page builders, and none have been 100% successful so far (a couple are extremely close though). I’d like to test this also. Looks promising!
@will83 – ACF v5 isn’t yet available. ACF fields won’t just appear in the widgets section. We’ll have to wait and see how this process will work. I’m super excited to start using ACF in this capacity!
@cleocq – I’ve been trying to do the exact same thing you’re doing, using the Page Builder plugin in combination with Widgets that use ACF. Guess we’ll just have to wait for the widget compatibility with ACF to accomplish this…
That would be extremely useful! +1
Limiting the number of rows in a Flexible Content Field would be great! I cast my vote!
