Hello. As well as including the extra functionality that is supported by add-on plugins in the free version, the main benefit of the ACF Pro version is that it allows us to easily manage the Options section of the admin dashboard and quickly develop advanced widgets. The free version of ACF does not support options and so you will not be able to turn on any modules or configure the theme.
The theme is in continuous development and the number of features is growing. The options section is becoming more and more central to the theme for switching modules on and off, and for configuring associated settings.
The licensing of the pro version states that we cannot include the plugin as part of the theme unless the theme is a premium (paid) theme. When we switched to version 4, and the use of ACF Pro, we made the decision to keep the theme free. Maybe one day we’ll get the theme into an online store, but either way users need to fork out a little.
I wish I got 25 bucks for every GovIntranet download! As things stand, proceeds go to the makers of ACF Pro and toward further development and enhancement of the plugin, which is a core part of the theme.

Luke OathamKeymasterWe’re using The Events Calendar plugin for more advanced calendars and reoccurring events. There’s a whole bunch of options and user interface features that you can use.
Luke OathamKeymasterYou’ll find Document types on the “Posts” menu! Rather hidden I know.
Luke OathamKeymasterYou need to add fields to the form using the Post Fields panel and match up each of the custom fields. Also, set the post type in the Title field – see attached.

There isn’t currently a widget area in the default template. Allowing custom content in sidebars is on the backlog of enhancements so hang in there.
For now, you might be able to achieve something using the Aggregator template. There is a free-format area in all of the available columns.

Luke OathamKeymasterIf you have Gravity Forms, you can use the Custom Post Type plugin
Create your form and add it to a page – see example form
Luke OathamKeymasterThanks for spotting! I’ve updated that now.
The Google Analytics plugins are driving me mad at the moment.
Luke OathamKeymasterI wonder if this has something to do with the site address in your Google Analytics account?
Luke OathamKeymasterOkay, try the new plugin in v4.2.2.3
Luke OathamKeymasterWill, are you seeing “Security check – can’t check your identity.” ?
Do you have any caching turned on? I wonder if the form HTML is not being refreshed. If you look at the source code of the page you’ll find hidden entries like:
<input type="hidden" name="_wpnonce" value="676d3c6c33" /> <input type="hidden" name="userid" value="2" /> <input type="hidden" name="type" value="add-bio" />
Maybe try noting the value of the _wpnonce entry and then compare on either a different browser or again in half an hour. The value should be different.
Luke OathamKeymasterHello! Some updates for this are coming in v4.2.2.1
Luke OathamKeymasterThank you! That’ll be included in the next release.
Luke OathamKeymasterThanks. That’s just a warning, but fixed in 4.2.1.3
Luke OathamKeymasterLOL 🙂
Luke OathamKeymasterHi Neil
No, they don’t exist in the theme yet. We’ve mainly stuck to the idea of individual bloggers but a blog category could be something for the roadmap.
