Descrição
Build it once, use it everywhere and forever. A simple acf pro add-on that allows you to treat a field group as a component and reuse it in any other field groups. Later on if you want to make changes to that component, you only need to edit once, it’ll apply to every field groups that uses the component.
When should I use this?

– UX enhanced: You can now set the default component field settings on the component field group. (such as button label, min, max, layout)
– UX enhanced: In the list table, when you are in the component tab, it’ll now show you how many times the component has been used. This is useful if your site has a lot of old components, and not sure if it’s save to delete or not.
– UX enhanced: After you duplicate a component field group, it’ll now redirect you to the component tab, instead of the active tab.
– Performance enhanced: with the new JS in ACF pro 5.7, some of hacky js code for component field has been removed. Now the backend run a lot smoother.
