    Hi, thanks for the wonderful plugin. I just did a test with ACF block with images, I can see images are copied/broadcast across to the other site but the images aren’t linked. I also aware that you have premium extension that supports Block editor, does this work for images in ACF block?

    https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/blocks/

    Here’s an example of how ACF store the image ID:
    <!-- wp:acf/image-header {"id":"block_61c9b1dc66e9f","name":"acf/image-header","data":{"title":"Test title","_title":"field_6166d4ff8c20b","image":716,"_image":"field_618de090fcc17"},"align":"","mode":"edit","wpClassName":"wp-block-acf-image-header"} /-->

    From the above, you can see the image id is 716, the label “image” is what I assigned in the ACF custom field, so that can be any text. Is the premium block plugin updates ACF image ID?

    Thanks.

    If you’re using any types of blocks via ACF, then you’re going to need the Gutenberg Attachments add-on.

    The Broadcast ACF add-on only handles Advanced Custom Fields.

    Hi Edward, I purchase Control pack and have gutenberg attachment activated, from the wizard option list, I can’t find a block/wizard that matches my custom ACF block. As you can see from the code above, my block is acf/image-header.

    That’s just one of the the many blocks I have created.

    Is there a way I can create my own “wizard” so I can match the ID of ACF block?

    You know that you can create any block and then edit it to change the name and ID attributes?

    Hi Edward, I can’t find that specific tutorial in the documentation, mind to share?

    When you saying “change the name” of the block, I have 20+ blocks with names that need to be unique. I’m not very sure how change name of block will work.
