When users click or hover on a help icon next to an ACF field, a modal popup appears showing a relevant help image or an interactive image slider! #### Features * **Multiple Image Galleries** – New in v2.0! Select “Gallery” as the media type and automatically generate a beautiful, lightweight image slider for your help documentation. * **Custom Animated GIF/Image Icons** – New in v2.0! Use any custom image or animated GIF as the help icon next to your fields. * **Global Dashboard Settings** – Control modal sizes, hover/click interactions, and default icons from a single, beautiful dashboard. * **Visual Help Images** – Add preview images to ACF fields for visual guidance. * **Modal Popup & Tooltips** – Clicking or hovering the help icon opens a clean, responsive popup. * **Easy Integration** – Seamlessly integrates with the ACF UI. * **Universal Compatibility** – Supports all ACF field types. ### Usage 1. Create or edit a field group in ACF. 2. For any field, you’ll see a **“Preview Image”** option—enable it. 3. Upload or select an image to be shown as a visual help. 4. Save the field group. 5. When editing a post or page, a small help icon will appear next to the field. 6.
