Formidable Advanced Custom Fields is a WordPress plugin that connects Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) with Formidable Forms. It maps form inputs to your custom fields, so forms can load existing ACF data and save submitted entries back to those fields.

What it does
Sites built on Advanced Custom Fields often store structured data such as profiles, listings or project details. Getting that data in and out through a form usually means copying values by hand or writing custom code. This add-on closes that gap by linking Formidable Forms inputs directly to ACF fields. When a form loads, it can pull in values already saved in ACF, and when someone submits it, the new values are written back to the matching custom fields.
Setup happens inside the Formidable Forms builder you already use, so mapping fields does not require a separate interface. It works with ACF field types including text, select, repeater and gallery, and you can apply conditional logic to show or hide connected fields based on what a visitor enters. Frontend editing lets users update their existing ACF data through a form, and developers get hooks and filters to adjust form behavior for specific projects. Formidable Forms is required.
Best for
- WordPress sites that store structured data with Advanced Custom Fields
- Developers building custom data workflows with Formidable Forms
- Sites where users edit their own profiles or entries
Features
Two-way field mapping
Sync ACF data into form inputs when a form loads, and push submitted values back to the matching custom fields without manual data entry.
Wide ACF field type support
Work with ACF field types such as text, select, repeater and gallery, so your forms can match the data structures you have already built.
Setup in the form builder
Manage and customize ACF-connected fields inside the familiar Formidable Forms builder, which keeps setup and later changes approachable for non-technical users.
Conditional logic on ACF fields
Show or hide form elements connected to ACF based on user input, so each visitor only sees the fields that apply to them.
Frontend editing of ACF data
Let users update their existing ACF data through forms on the front end of your site, without needing access to the WordPress dashboard.
Hooks and filters for developers
Use the included hooks and filters to extend the add-on and customize how forms behave for complex or unusual project requirements.

Questions about Formidable Advanced Custom Fields
Do I need Formidable Forms to use this add-on?
Yes. This is an add-on for Formidable Forms and requires it to be active. It also works with Advanced Custom Fields, since its purpose is to connect ACF fields to the inputs in your Formidable forms.
Can a form show data that is already saved in ACF?
Yes. Field mapping works in both directions. Forms can be populated automatically with existing ACF values, and when the form is submitted, the new data is saved back to the corresponding custom fields.
Which ACF field types can I connect?
The add-on supports ACF field types including text, select, repeater and gallery, among others. That lets you build forms that reflect more involved data structures, such as repeating rows or image collections.
Can users edit their information after submitting?
Yes. Frontend editing lets users update existing ACF data directly through forms on your site. You can also apply conditional logic to those connected fields to show or hide parts of the form based on their input.
