Global & Translatable Options with ACF Pro

Siegfried, deploy!

In this episode, Steffen and Dominik discuss the concept of global and translatable options for WordPress websites. Components can have options that are either limited to where they are inserted, or that apply to all components of a certain type on the site, even for different languages. This concept makes it easier for developers and editors to maintain and manage websites.
