## Description

This plugin will replace your default content editor with flexible multiple column
editors, allowing you to add up to 4 columns of content to your page. Column widths
can be easily altered and are responsive to mobile, tablet and desktop device sizes.
This plugin requires the PRO version of Advanced Custom Fields to work as it makes
use of Flexible Content fields.

  How to add your own custom Content Block

 1. First, add your new content block within the Advanced Custom Fields – Flexible 
    Columns editor by adding a new layout within the row width(s) you want it available
    in.
 2. Next, create a new function in your functions.php like so:
     function yourfunction(
    $type){ if( $type == ‘layout_name’ ): $field = get_sub_field(‘field_name’); $layout
    = $field; endif; return $layout; }
 3. Then add the function to the filter so it will appear like so:
     add_filter(‘flexible_layout’,‘
    yourfunction’);

  See Settings page for additional filter examples

### 󠀁[Misses a crucial step in the readme](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/misses-a-crucial-step-in-the-readme/)󠁿

This plugin works as advertised. It uses Bootstrap columns and adds a nice (customizable)“
scroll into view” animation for the columns. However to get it to work, you’ll first
need to import the required ACF fields .json from the acf-json folder inside the
plugin folder.
