 * I must be missing something here because I cant figure out, how it actually works.
   
   1) I have clean WP install 2) I installed Advanced Custom Fields 3) I made few
   custom fields and used those in a Post 4) I installed Advanced Custom Fields:
   Table Field
 * ….and from here on, it’s unclear, what to do
 * I use default TwentySeventeen theme. It has a page.php but no post.php.
 * 5) Do I need to create a child theme with a custom post.php?
 * If I edit page.php, it will be overwritten by next update.
    I am also not sure,
   where to place your code from [https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-custom-fields-table-field/#description](https://wordpress.org/plugins/advanced-custom-fields-table-field/#description)
 * Your instructions are probably clear for WP devs but I am not a developer. 🙂
 * Short and precise, step by step instructions will be appreciated.
 * Cheers!

 * You would do the same as for any other field in ACF so best to read through the
   documentation for the main plugin.
 * If you are using a theme made by someone else then you need to create a child
   theme, so your changes aren’t overwritten when updating.
