acf/fields/flexible_content/layout_title

Last updated Nov 17, 2022

Description

Used to modify the $title HTML displayed at the top of each flexible content layout.

Within the filter callback, it is possible to load sub field values via the get_sub_field(), the_sub_field() and get_row() functions and display them within the returned string.

This filter is also run via an AJAX request each time the layout is toggled open or closed.

Here is a before/after visual example to demonstrate how this filter can improve UX.
