Advanced Custom Fields: Auto JSON Sync

This plugin is an add-on for Advanced Custom Fields that automates the synchronization of JSON-based field group definitions. It is designed for developers who manage ACF field groups via version control and want to keep the local database in sync with the files in their theme.

• Automatic Detection: Scans the acf-json directory in your active theme for changes. When a JSON file is added, modified, or removed, the corresponding field group is updated or deleted automatically.
• Version Control Friendly: By storing field group definitions as JSON files, you can track changes with Git or other systems. The plugin ensures your local environment always reflects the latest file state.
• No Manual Sync Needed: Eliminates the need to manually import or export field groups between environments. Deployment becomes simpler and less error-prone.
• Simple Setup: Activate the plugin, and it creates the acf-json directory if it doesn’t exist. No configuration required—just place your JSON files in that folder.

The plugin requires ACF Pro (version 5 or later) and PHP 5.3+. It works with any theme that uses the standard acf-json folder.
