Hi there,
I can understand why support is a bit slow. As it is managed by volunteers, it can’t be guaranteed that it will be provided or offered. This applies to all plugins here on www.remarpro.com.
Some folks are trying to catch up with a higher pile of tasks right now, so I really appreciate your patience.
For the_field()
, it should work exactly in the same way as you had before, considering that this part of the code hasn’t changed significantly yet for the new plugin.
