Notes: Image, Gallery will work if your website is public. From localhost to live website will not work as localhost is not publicly accessible. If you can set your website public, image, gallery fields will work.

Notes for Taxonomy: If you have already related terms of post, this plugin can import and attach terms to the post or custom post type. If you have hierarchical taxonomies, you must have taxonomies in your destination site. If slug of term is matched, it attaches to post. Otherwise, it creates a new term, but does not maintain hierarchy.

Overwrote a non-related blog post

webswift February 9, 2024

Pretty bad. The first time I used it, it replaced an existing blog post copying data into a post not even related to the acf blog post it was coming from. I had to revert to a previous version of the blog post. Perhaps a preview feature (old post / new post) would have eliminated this issue. I also had to restore the featured image of the post that was overwritten. Sure, some would say it was operator error – however if it happened to me, it could happen to the next person trying out this plugin. Be forewarned, proceed at your own risk.

Nice and easy to use

Exporting ACF Data, the use case described in the name of the plugin, is not actually possible without paying. This should be reported.
