Advanced Forms Pro for ACF

Advanced Forms Pro for ACF is a specialized WordPress extension designed for those who already work with Advanced Custom Fields and need to create advanced, flexible front-end forms perfectly connected to their custom fields. Developed by Phil Kurth under the Hookturn brand, this plugin leverages the full power of ACF to deliver a frictionless form-building experience, without relying on custom development or generic solutions that don't adapt to the existing data structure on your site.

The plugin is intended for sites where users need to create or update content from the public side: from simple contact forms to complex post-editing flows and user profiles. With Advanced Forms Pro, you can build forms that create and edit entries of any content type, configuring the title, content, and post status, and automatically mapping your existing ACF fields without writing a single line of code. It also allows you to register new users or let visitors edit their profile from the front-end, with automatic mapping of user fields.

Among its most notable features are unlimited email notifications with dynamic recipients, AJAX form submission for a faster experience without page reloads, saving all entries with their complete fields, and spam protection via honeypot and invisible Google reCAPTCHA. Calculated fields provide real-time feedback to users as they fill out the form, and are fully programmable for more complex calculations.

Advanced Forms Pro includes native integrations with Slack to receive a message for each submission, Mailchimp to add subscribers to your mailing lists, and Zapier to connect your forms with thousands of external services. It also offers configurable restrictions: total submission limits, access only for registered users, or time-based usage limits. The interface allows you to create forms both from the admin panel and programmatically, and includes support for Gutenberg blocks.

Designed for developers, it offers a wide variety of hooks and helper functions, along with comprehensive documentation. If you're looking for a form builder that integrates naturally with your ACF structure and allows your users to manage content from the front-end with full control, Advanced Forms Pro is the solution you've been waiting for.
