Activate ACF Show in REST API with wordplate ? about wordplate

[vinkla]

In simple terms WordPlate is basically a different folder structure for WordPress. It should work as any other WordPress installation.

Well...
It's not really the kind of answer I was expecting.

Normally I should be able to have this code structure :

`
add_action( 'acf/include_fields', function() {
if ( ! function_exists( 'acf_add_local_field_group' ) ) {
return;
}

acf_add_local_field_group( array(
'key' => 'group_65d314a11e8d3',
[... all the field group attributes]
'show_in_rest' => 1,

) );
} );
`

But I can't see anywhere where it's declared like that.
Even functions.php isn't in the available files

@steve-ref it's kind of hard to understand what your issue is imo. retrieving acf content via rest should be the same whether you're using wordplate or plain wordpress. have you tried the code above in your application? have you tried within a new wordpress installation (without wordplate)?

why are you even expecting the code to be present in your codebase if you're implementing a non-existent feature?

afaik acf/include_fields is a acf pro feature, and it looks like it should be used from within plugins (the manual doesn't mention it either). do you have acf pro installed? have you tried the code above without the filter?

Actually, I don't think I understand how ACF works with Wordplate.

If I understand correctly, to create my blocks, I need to call upon the different PHP files present in the Wordplate folder (for example: WysiwygEditor.php).

This means that in the project I've been assigned, I end up with a line of code like this: WysiwygEditor::make('something', 'something').

My question was whether there is a resource available for enabling the "Show in REST API" option for Wordplate because I don't have access to the user interface to do it in my WordPress admin with Wordplate (it works fine with another installation).

On a fresh WordPress installation with ACF PRO, I can either create my ACF fields and activate "Show In REST API" via the user interface or through functions.php, but I don't have access to either method with Wordplate (I don't have a functions.php, nor a checkbox in the admin).

Sorry for all these questions, I'm just trying to understand how it works.

i think they work just fine together. :)

it seems to me that you are confusing this package with vinkla/extended-acf. eitherway, all properties available in the wp-admin gui for acf is available programmatically, so try this:

acf_add_local_field_group([
    // ...
    'show_in_rest' => true,
]);

Oh well yeah, It's me who doesn't understand how it works ^^, this is not a package problem, didn't want to offense.

Indeed, you're right, it's an outdated version of ExtendedACF but the imports are from Wordplate so I thought it was related to Wordplate itself.

My other question was:

I usually put functions in functions.php because that's what I've always been told. Where could I put this function without that file and without breaking the current code?

Thanks for your help

anywhere you like, as long as you include/require it from functions.php. if you don't have a functions.php file present in your theme i suggest you create it. if you can't create it, i can't think of another way besides creating a plugin.
