#### Video walkthrough

#### Field types

#### Modern media & gallery

 * Gallery and Image return formats: Image ID, Image URL, or **Image Array**
 * Gallery layouts: Card / Masonry with optional lightbox
 * Per-image **Link URL** + **Link Target** (`_blank`, `_self`, `_parent`, `_top`)
   in the Media sidebar
 * Theme loops can use `$img['external_url']` and `$img['target']` (or `massoftind_fb_the_gallery()`)

#### Relationships & taxonomies

 * Relationship dual-list picker with search, filters, drag reorder
 * **Allow Multiple** with optional **Min / Max** selection limits
 * WPML-aware titles — Available and Selected stay in the current admin language
 * Taxonomy multi-select preserves pick order; optional **Exclude Terms** picker
 * Taxonomy **Min / Max** when multiple is enabled

#### Builder & admin experience

 * Drag-and-drop field builder with nested Sub Fields
 * Location rules (post type, page template, taxonomy, role, and more)
 * Conditional logic on fields
 * Import / export field groups as JSON
 * Post Types, Taxonomies, Site Sections, List Views, and **Content Order**
 * Settings: Preferences, Field Usage Guide, **Filters & Hooks** reference
 * Optional Classic Editor toggle and SVG upload control
 * Onboarding checklist and in-plugin documentation

#### Multilingual & integrations

 * **qTranslate-X / qTranslate-XT** — language buttons on text-like fields
 * **WPML + WooCommerce Multilingual** — translate/copy custom fields; product sync
   with WCML
 * **Yoast SEO / Premium** and **Rank Math / Pro** — custom field variables
 * **WooCommerce** location rules for products
 * **WP All Import Pro** / **WP All Export Pro** field exposure
 * **Elementor** (Free + Pro) — Massoftind Dynamic Tags group

#### Template helpers

Use in your theme:

 * `massoftind_fb_get()` / `massoftind_fb_update()`
 * `massoftind_fb_have_rows()` / `massoftind_fb_the_row()` / `massoftind_fb_sub_field()`
 * `massoftind_fb_image()` / `massoftind_fb_gallery()` / `massoftind_fb_the_gallery()`
 * `massoftind_fb_terms()` / `massoftind_fb_date()` and more

Optional template-compatibility aliases (`get_field`, `have_rows`, …) can be enabled
in Settings for existing theme code.

#### Bricks Builder

When [Bricks](https://bricksbuilder.io/) is active (Settings  Bricks Dynamic Data
on by default):

 * Use `{mfb_field_name}` in Dynamic Data (group **Massoftind Field Builder**)
 * Options: `{mfb_option:field_name}`
 * Repeaters: Query Loop type **Massoftind Repeater**, set Meta Key to the repeater
   name, use `{mfb_row:sub_field}` inside the loop
 * ACF Pro can stay installed — `{acf_…}` tags are not changed; rebind templates
   to `{mfb_…}` only when migrating fields
 * **Or deactivate ACF:** with **Bricks ACF tag alias** (default on), existing `{
   acf_…}` tags and ACF repeater query loops are resolved by Massoftind — no Bricks
   template edits

#### Elementor

When [Elementor](https://elementor.com/) is active (Settings  Elementor Dynamic 
Tags on by default):

 * Open any widget control that supports Dynamic Tags  group **Massoftind Field 
   Builder**
 * Tags: **Massoftind Field** (text), **Image**, **URL**, **Gallery**, **Color**,**
   Number**
 * Source: **Current post / term** or **Site Sections / Options**
 * Nested Group fields appear as `parent_child` names in the picker
 * Prefer these tags for new CMS builds; optional ACF shim still helps some Elementor
   Pro ACF widgets after migration

#### Privacy & third-party services

 * Does **not** phone home or send site data to Massoftind
 * YouTube fields may load thumbnails/embeds from YouTube only when configured —
   see [YouTube Terms](https://www.youtube.com/t/terms)
 * SVG uploads are **off by default** (Settings  Allow SVG Uploads)

#### Optional companion

Works alongside **Dynamic Content Builder** for front-end listings. No other plugins
are required to use Field Builder.

    via **Plugins  Add New  Upload Plugin**.
 2. Activate **Massoftind Field Builder**.

## FAQ

### Do I need another custom fields plugin?

No. Massoftind Field Builder is a standalone field builder with its own metabox 
UI, repeaters, and template helpers.

### Can I try it before installing?

Yes — [WordPress Playground live demo](https://playground.wordpress.net/?plugin=massoftind-field-builder&url=/wp-admin/admin.php%3Fpage%3Dmassoftind-fb-field-groups&php=8.2).

### Where are field values stored?

As prefixed post meta. Field-group definitions use an internal custom post type.

### How do I set a Link URL on a gallery image?

Open the Gallery field  **Edit** on a thumbnail  in Attachment Details set optional**
Link URL** and **Link Target**. Values appear in Image Array as `external_url` and`
target`.

### Can I limit how many items a Relationship or Taxonomy field allows?

Yes. Enable **Allow Multiple**, then set optional **Minimum Selections** and **Maximum
Selections** (0 = no limit).

### Can I move field groups between sites?

Yes. Use **Tools  Export** and **Import** for JSON field-group definitions (and 
related Post Types / Taxonomies / Site Sections when present).

### Is there a REST API?

Yes, optional. Enable under **Field Builders  Settings**. Endpoints require authenticated
users with the right capabilities.

### Does this phone home?

No.

### Does it work with qTranslate-X?

Yes. With **qTranslate-X** or **qTranslate-XT**, text-like fields use Language Switching
Buttons. Helpers return the active language on the front end.

### Does it work with Yoast SEO, Rank Math, WP All Import / Export?

Yes, when those plugins are active (SEO variables, sitemap exclusions, import/export
field exposure).

### Does it work with WPML / WooCommerce Multilingual?

Yes. Fields register for translate/copy; WCML product translation UI is supported.
Override under WPML  Settings  Custom Fields Translation.

### Does it work with Bricks Builder and ACF Pro?

Yes. Bricks Dynamic Data shows a **Massoftind Field Builder** group with `{mfb_field_name}`
tags. While ACF Pro is active, Bricks’ `{acf_…}` tags stay native to ACF. After 
you deactivate ACF and import field JSON into Massoftind, enable **Settings  Bricks
ACF tag alias** (default on) so the same `{acf_…}` tags and ACF repeater loops keep
working through Massoftind — no Bricks template or core edits. For repeaters you
can also use Query Loop type **Massoftind Repeater** and `{mfb_row:sub_field}`.

### Does it work with Elementor?

Yes. With Elementor active, Dynamic Tags include a **Massoftind Field Builder** 
group (text, image, URL, gallery, color, number). Bind Heading, Image, Button, and
Gallery widgets to your fields — including Site Sections / Options. Keep field names
when migrating from ACF; use the Massoftind tags for a reliable CMS workflow (Elementor
Pro’s ACF tags remain best-effort via the optional ACF shim).

## Changelog

#### 1.9.156

 * Fix: Gallery Logos UI — overlapping thumbs / stacked Edit× icons after reorder(
   jQuery UI Sortable + flex; also broken when gallery sits in a hidden meta tab).
 * Fix: Gallery uses float layout, clears leftover absolute positioning, refreshes
   on meta-tab switch.
 * Compat: Admin UI only — Bricks, Elementor, WPML, and qTranslate value/rendering
   paths unchanged.

#### 1.9.155

 * Fix: Gallery field — reordering images no longer leaves duplicate Edit/Remove
   icons; improved drag helper/placeholder.
 * New: Repeater rows are drag-sortable via a grip handle (order saved on publish).
 * Fix: Content Order — correct pagination offset when saving, more reliable sortable
   init, Quick Edit re-bind.
 * Compat: Bricks, Elementor, WPML, and qTranslate paths unchanged.

#### 1.9.154

 * Fix: `get_field( $name, get_queried_object() )` / `massoftind_fb_get()` accept`
   WP_Term` objects (ACF parity) so taxonomy term banners and term meta render on
   archives.
 * Compat: Bricks, Elementor, WPML, and qTranslate paths unchanged — term values
   still run through `massoftind_fb_format_value`.

#### 1.9.153

 * Fix: Menu SVG icons — convert theme `<img class="menu_svg_image" src="….svg">`
   to sanitized inline `<svg>` on the front end (no theme edit). Works even when
   Allow SVG Uploads is off.
 * Note: Allow SVG Uploads remains upload-only. Front-end menu inlining is separate.

#### 1.9.152

 * Fix: `get_field( $name, $item )` / `massoftind_fb_get()` accept menu item objects(
   ACF parity) so Appearance  Menus fields like Menu SVG resolve on the front end.
 * Fix: Template-compat post ID normalizer extracts `->ID` from objects instead 
   of falling back to the current page.
 * Fix: Image fields on `nav_menu_item` return a URL string (unless Return Format
   is Image Array) so existing `<img src="' . $icon . '">` theme filters work without
   edits.

#### 1.9.151

 * New: **Elementor Dynamic Tags** — Massoftind Field / Image / URL / Gallery / 
   Color / Number group for CMS page building without ACF.
 * New: Settings  **Elementor Dynamic Tags** (on by default); source Current post/
   term or Site Sections / Options.
 * Compat: Bricks, WPML, and qTranslate paths unchanged.

#### 1.9.150

 * New: Location rule **Menu Item** (`nav_menu`) — attach fields to Appearance  
   Menus items (ACF-compatible, e.g. Menu SVG).
 * New: ACF import maps `nav_menu` / `menu_item` / `nav_menu_item` location rules;
   values save as `nav_menu_item` post meta for `get_field( $name, $item_id )` (
   Elementor Pro, Bricks, themes).
 * Compat: WPML menu-item duplicates disconnect on save; qTranslate still formats
   via existing `massoftind_fb_format_value` on get.

#### 1.9.149

 * Fix: Bricks loop `get_field()` values run through `massoftind_fb_format_value`
   again (qTranslate `[:lang]` decode).
 * Fix: Stale Massoftind repeater context clears when Bricks starts a non-MFB query;
   container-root gating still blocks Our Story–style tag theft.
 * Fix: Bricks text/link dynamic data applies the same format filter before shortcodes.

#### 1.9.148

 * Fix: Nested `have_rows( 'group_field' )` inside a repeater/group (e.g. `video_section`
   in `banner_section`) no longer drops associative group values — hero video loops
   work again.

#### 1.9.147

 * Fix: Bricks repeater loop tags like `{acf_item_repeater_item_heading}` render
   again (Mission / Why Live Local empty boxes).
 * Fix: Loop-row resolution matches the active repeater path (not a shorter FieldCatalog
   root), and settings no longer wipe loop tags before the loop runs.
 * Fix: `get_field()` reads the active Bricks Massoftind loop row so Bricks’ native
   ACF provider gets sub-field values.

#### 1.9.146

 * Fix: `get_sub_field()` keeps numeric attachment IDs (instead of converting them
   to arrays) when the sub-field definition is missing, so `wp_get_attachment_image()`
   works with Image ID return format.
 * Fix: Stronger repeater parent lookup when resolving nested image/file sub-fields.
 * New: `massoftind_fb_attachment_image()` / `massoftind_fb_get_attachment_image()`
   helpers that render SVGs and other attachments that `wp_get_attachment_image()`
   skips.

#### 1.9.145

 * Fix: Bricks query loops no longer leave stale row context that steals later `{
   mfb_*}` / group field tags (e.g. Our Story after Mission/Vision).
 * Fix: ACF Star Rating Field import type `star_rating_field` maps to native Star
   Rating so admin no longer shows “This field type is not available.”
 * Fix: Bricks dynamic data for `star_rating` fields outputs star HTML instead of
   a bare number.

#### 1.9.144

 * Fix: WordPress shortcodes in Text/Textarea fields (e.g. `[current_year]`) run
   through `do_shortcode()` when rendered in Bricks dynamic data and via `massoftind_fb_get()`.

#### 1.9.143

 * Fix: Bricks homepage/catalog sections empty when fields are on the front page
   but values live in Site Sections or legacy ACF Options keys — option fallback
   no longer blocked by front-page location rules.
 * Fix: Resolve `{acf_*}` in Bricks Heading/Text/Link element settings before render(
   catalog + service sections).
 * Fix: WPML-safe — post-only fields still never fall back to globals; legacy ACF
   option keys are detected before blocking.

#### 1.9.142

 * Fix: Bricks `{acf_*}` Site Section / global fields resolve when called without`:
   option` — `get_field()` and `get_field_object()` now fall back to wp_options (
   footer, homepage sections, contact info).
 * Fix: Nested group sub-fields and underscore paths (`footer_connect_section_heading`)
   read from Site Section option storage.
 * Fix: Option fallback is gated to Site Section fields only — post-assigned fields
   with empty meta stay empty (WPML per-translation). qTranslate still decodes via
   existing `massoftind_fb_format_value` on options.

#### 1.9.141

 * Fix: Bricks Logo/Image fatal (`preg_split(): array given`) — remove early `render_tag`
   hook at priority 5 that returned image arrays before Bricks’ ACF provider runs.
 * Fix: Resolve dynamic logo image fields via `filter_element_settings` on the Logo
   element.

#### 1.9.140

 * Fix: Bricks `{acf_*}` dynamic tags render again — keep Bricks’ native ACF provider
   and resolve tags early via BricksSupport (1.9.139 had disabled the provider, 
   leaving raw `{ACF_…}` in templates).
 * Fix: Site Section / options fields (footer globals) resolve by full field path,
   not only the first underscore segment.
