Features

• Visual 3x3 grid layout for position selection
• Enable/disable individual positions
• Option to use preset positions or define custom values
• Flexible return value configuration
• Accessible interface with keyboard navigation

Installation

1. Ensure Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) is installed and activated
2. Upload the position-field-plugin folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory

Field Settings

Position Control

Each position in the 3x3 grid can be:

• Enabled or disabled using a toggle switch
• Assigned a custom value (when using custom return format)
• Disabled positions are unclickable in the interface

Return Format Options

• String: Returns standard position identifiers (e.g., "center-center")
• Custom Values: Returns your defined text for each position

Example Usage

// Get the position value
$position = get_field('your_position_field_name');

// Example conditional based on position
if ($position === 'center-center' && !get_field('disabled_center-center')) {
    // Handle centered content
}

Managing Disabled Positions

• Use the toggle switches in field settings to enable/disable positions
• Disabled positions cannot be selected in the grid interface
• Previously selected positions that become disabled should be updated
• Re-enable positions at any time by toggling the switch back

Requirements

• WordPress 5.0+
• Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) Pro or Free
• PHP 7.2 or higher
