### Development

[](#development)

- $ `git clone git@github.com:mcguffin/acf-dropzone.git`
- $ `cd acf-dropzone`
- $ `npm install`
- $ `npm run dev`

Plugin API
----------

[](#plugin-api)

To add dropzone capability to arbitrary field types you can use the `acf_dropzone/file_fields` and `acf_dropzone/gallery_fields` filter.

This might come in handy if you use the feature image field type of [ACF Frontend](https://wordpress.org/plugins/acf-frontend-form-element/), or something alike.

Adding support for ACF Frontend‘s `featured_image` field:

```
add_filter( 'acf_dropzone/file_fields', function($fields) {
	$fields[] = 'featured_image';
	return $fields;
});
```

Please note that the field input HTML needs to be exactly as the one provided by ACF, so filters won't work on any field.
