    Hey there,
    Can I wrap your plugin shortcode in an Advanced Custom Fields(ACF) plugin shortcode?

    Thanks in advance!

    Oh I didn’t know ACF had shortcodes .. interesting. Can you give an example of what you try to do?

    It seems that pre-filling a value is not supported by ACF. Nesting shortcodes is possible in theory, but only with the [shortcode]inside[/shortcode]-Syntax. So without PHP this will not be possible, I guess.

    Hey there,
    ACF also provides shortcodes to display the field data using shortcode [acf field="{$field_name}"] which is same as the_field() . I was wondering if we could wrap your plugin shortcode in an ACF field would it work?
