We need more about authentication & eCommerce using Faust / Headless WP 🙏❤️
I was trying this and WordPress asked for upgrading to a creator plan for about 9k to install any plugin, is it a necessity or any other way around?
I'm working to add this ACF post type but not seeing the show_in_graphql option. I have the most recent 'WPGraphQL for Advanced Custom Fields' plugin, not sure what to do here.l
Nice 🙂
Where can we get the new beta version of wp-graphql-acf – as Jason Bahl said – it will be rewritten and we have to change the code – then it would be great to get the beta-version for new project I am setting up.
Hey guys,
Thank you for this very practical introduction to Faust. I have a question about connecting WordPress templates to Faust's wp-templates. Instead of routing individual URLs separately, I would like to have the template selection at CMS level, as you mentioned ~ from minute 47. Let's say if I want to have a template for all legal pages. Could you please give me a hint on how best to implement this?
