ACF 6.8 introduces three major features: integration with the WordPress Core Abilities API, experimental schema.org support for automatic JSON-LD structured data output, and new WP-CLI commands for ACF JSON workflows (status, sync, export, import). The schema feature lets developers map ACF field groups and blocks to schema.org types, supporting nested structures via repeaters and outputting valid JSON-LD for SEO and AI discoverability. WP-CLI support enables scripted field group management across environments, useful for CI/CD pipelines. The session also covered ACF Blocks V3 improvements, inline editing behavior, and the current limitations around collaborative editing in WordPress.
