ACF Sync
Author Note : Since 5.1.5, ACF now includes its own manual syncing feature !
I recommend using this feature instead of the ACF Sync plugin for manual synchronization.
ACF Sync is still relevant if you need automatic synchronization between different environments, especially on production instances where the ACF UI shouldn't be accessible to users.
I will release soon a 2.0 version that will take advantage of the 5.1.5 features and will drop the manual synchronization feature
ACF Sync is a little WordPress plugin that let you keep your ACF field groups synchronized between different environments.
