@James,

Thanks! This is the code that ended up working:

$hero = simple_fields_fieldgroup('hero');

if (!empty($hero['video'])) {
	$hero_video = $hero['video'];
} else if (empty($hero['video'])){
	$hero_video = get_field('video');
} else {
	$hero_video = '';
}

In simple fields first you have to call the field group array with simple_fields_fieldgroup()

Then I checked to see if simple fields is being used in the current post, if not then we move on the ACF, else leave it blank.

So far it works like a charm!

I think I’ve got something working close to what I need:

$hero = simple_fields_fieldgroup('field-group');

$hero_field = (!empty($hero['value']) ? $hero['value'] : '');
$hero_field =  (!empty($hero_field) ?: get_field('value'));

I think this should allow me to continue the simple field architecture while I slowly make the switch over to ACF.

It looks like you were trying to do something similar to what I’m trying to do, could you take a look at my post and give me a hand?
