 * I’m using ACF, and changes to the field groups are being tracked fine. My question
   is in pages/posts/CPTs where ACF fields are being used, all I get in the log 
   is Updated {post_type} “{post_title”}
   ex Updated page “foobar adventures”Is there
   a way I can capture the actual data that was changed in the various fields?
 * Nice simple user interface BTW.
 * Thanks.

 * The support for ACF could be improved. I did try to catch the changes made to
   ACF fields but it’s a bit cumbersome so I have not found a way to do it nicely
   yet. Maybe (I’m not sure here so I might be completely wrong since I don’t have
   any WordPress installation with ACF at the moment) you could click the date/time
   of the logged event and a table with some more details will show up. _Maybe_ 
   that table will have some more info…

 * If you want to code up something as a test, send it over and I’ll drop it into
   the site. Appreciate the insights.
