thanks for the update!
Just to be sure. All current users can use ACF Pro in the future for new projects. So the âCurrent Cwicly usersâ does not refer only to currently active installations of Cwicly in combination with ACF Pro.
ACF Pro will be bundled and active for all orders made prior to this announcement.
The integration is unchanged and will work with bundle or your own version of ACF.
We will be pushing forward the integration with alternatives.
It is too bad that ACF changed their policy, but overall it seems like a fair way to handle it so that Cwicly, for instance, doesnât have to clawback ACF from people who already purchased Cwicly.
Iâm happy to see other integrations, but on some level focusing just on ACF may have meant that it was quicker to add new features.
If you have a Cwicly license bought early on, you have it bundled with ACF. So there is no need to use your own license on a Cwicly build other then if you need support from ACF or Cwicly will fail providing updates for ACF in a timely manner. There your own license will give you support and independent updates to ACF Pro.
I donât see updates a problem, but well you are on the safe side if you have your own license in that regard.
@Louis, this is good point. Just want to clarify that we will continue to receive updates to ACF Pro in the now, effectively, grandfathered Cwicly accounts?
Of course you will receive updates. But you have to wait until cwicly distributes them. Like the last years. No change for you. No support from ACF amd no direct updates. Same same. Like before.
If I purchased a pro license but upgrade later on, will ACF be bundled with this upgraded license? I wasnât sure if this counted as a new order/license or just extended the old one.
@fidlet if you purchased any Cwicly license before the date of 10 February 2024 you will have the full pro version of ACF Pro and all updates going forward. After that date the Pro version of ACF is no longer bundled within Cwicly.
@Louis for those of us who had Cwicly license using the old payment method and had to place another order after the Feb 10, because our licence did not automatically get renewed.
Is there a way to have ACF back since its not our fault that we had to place another order.
