Easily create and manage custom options pages in your WordPress admin using Advanced Custom Fields (ACF). Perfect for theme or plugin settings.

== Description ==
The ACF Custom Option Page plugin allows you to create custom option pages using Advanced Custom Fields (ACF). This plugin enhances your WordPress admin interface by providing a seamless way to manage options with ACF's powerful field management system.

== Installation ==
1. Upload the `custom-option-page-for-acf` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
2. Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' menu in WordPress.
3. Ensure the Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) plugin is installed and activated, as this plugin is dependent on it.

**Usage Example:**

This plugin saves values in the WordPress options table using the format `copacf_options_FIELD_NAME`.

To retrieve an option value on the frontend, use WordPress’s native get_option() function:

    get_option('copacf_options_FIELD_NAME')

Replace FIELD_NAME with the actual name of your ACF field.

You can also use the helper function:

    copacf_get_option('FIELD_NAME')

**Link field example:**

    $link = get_option('copacf_options_my_link');
    // Returns: array( 'title' => '...', 'url' => '...', 'target' => '...' )

**Image field example:**

Image values respect your ACF field "Return Format" setting (Image Array, Image URL, or Image ID).

    $image = get_option('copacf_options_my_image');
