Each layout appears as a card with a thumbnail, title, and short description, so editors can see exactly what they’re adding before they add it. #### Features * Visual modal replaces the default layout dropdown * Thumbnail, title, and description for every layout (set in the ACF field group editor) * Add layouts to your field with a single click * Lightweight — no bloat, no external connections, no account required Every feature above is fully functional in this free plugin — there is no license key, no trial, and nothing gated. A separate, optional **Pro add-on** (sold and downloaded from its own site, not from WordPress.org) adds a power-user workflow: select several layouts and add them in one batch, reorder your selection before inserting, and search across large layout libraries. #### Requirements This plugin extends the **Flexible Content** field, which is part of **Advanced Custom Fields PRO**. ACF PRO 6.0 or later must be installed and active. #### About the optional Pro add-on This free plugin gives every editor the full visual picker: preview each layout as a card and add it to your Flexible Content field with a click, with no limits, no license key, and no external connections. It is complete and fully functional on its own. A separate **AIBS Flexible Content Picker for ACF — Pro** add-on is sold and downloaded from its own site (not from WordPress.org). When installed alongside this plugin it adds a power-user workflow: selecting several layouts and adding them in one batch, reordering your selection before inserting, and searching across large layout libraries. The add-on is entirely optional and its code is not part of this WordPress. org plugin. ## Screenshots [⌊The visual layout picker modal — each layout shown as a thumbnail card.⌉⌊The visual layout picker modal — each layout shown as a thumbnail card.⌉[ The visual layout picker modal — each layout shown as a thumbnail card.

The Flexible Content field is a PRO-only feature of Advanced Custom Fields, so ACF PRO 6.0 or later must be active. ### Does it work with the free version of ACF? No — Flexible Content is not available in the free version of ACF, so this plugin needs ACF PRO. ### How many layouts can I use? As many as your field defines — the free version lets you add any of them, one layout at a time. The separate Pro add-on plugin adds multi-select (batch adding), drag- to-reorder, and search. ### Where do the thumbnails and descriptions come from? You set them per layout inside the ACF field group editor, in the field’s settings panel. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “AIBS Flexible Content Picker for ACF” is open source software.
