ACF Table Field Pro Documentation

Table Field Pro adds a table field to Advanced Custom Fields (ACF), ACF Pro and Secure Custom Fields (SCF). Editors edit tables directly in a table editor, and you decide which editing options they get. You can display the table as HTML or use its data in your own output.

What is the table field for?

The table field is made for data in rows and columns, such as price lists, technical specifications, schedules or comparisons. Editors add, move and remove rows and columns, use a header and footer, merge cells and import CSV data.

When a repeater field becomes unwieldy for this kind of content, the table field is often the better choice. Compare table field and repeater field
