Description
Integrates WordPress’ default link picker into Advanced Custom Fields
As of ACF Pro 5.6.0, this field is built-in, so this plugin should not be used.
Allows you to select an existing piece of content or enter a custom URL, set the link title, and choose whether or not the link should open in a new window/tab.
Only works with ACF version 5 and above.
Requires PHP 5.4 or above.
After saving, you can access your data as an array:
array(
[url] => http://site.com/page/
[title] => Page!
[target] => 0
)

Reviews
Thanks for data migration!
Thank you for creating a simple migration path to the new ACF 5.6 data structure. It would have been easy to forgo that last update and let people figure it out for themselves, but you made it easy for everyone. Truly appreciated.
A little bug
When you modify the link to select another page, the Title is not updated.
Real timesaver!
It had never even crossed my mind to integrate with the built-in link picker dialog. I had previously had two fields and a checkbox to choose between an external URL (simple URL field) and a “page link” field… This is, of course, much simpler – thank you! I originally found this plugin because another one which does the same is featured on ACF’s addons page, but since that one hasn’t been updated for a while it feels saver to stick with this brand new one. Works really well, good job! 🙂
