 * Hi
 * Just installed the SCF was check your official scf code reference following this
   link mentioned in SCF plugin page :👇🏻
 * **[https://developer.wordpress.org/secure-custom-fields/code-reference/](https://developer.wordpress.org/secure-custom-fields/code-reference/)**
 * But the entire code reference is for **ACF**. Do let us know if these code reference
   and functions listed there, are available in **SCF**.? Since they are not working
   with **SCF** plugin, functions like 👉🏻**acf_get_field().**??
 * Waiting for reply…
 * Regards
 * N

 * Hi! This is normal, as SCF is a fork of ACF, so you will see “acf_” prefixes 
   in all code references.
 * You can also use the official ACF documentation for now. In 99% of cases all 
   the same functions and mechanisms will work similarly in SCF.
