KMS Field Health

KMS Field Health helps WordPress site owners and developers understand their Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) configuration. Explore field groups and nested fields, locate supported configuration findings, and inspect the evidence before deciding what to review.

The free plugin provides useful structural information even when no findings are detected. No account, subscription, or license activation is required by KMS Field Health.

Explore your ACF structure

• Find field groups by title and key, with active state, field counts, and collection coverage.
• Inspect field labels, names, types, returned keys, and distinct field occurrences.
• Follow parent paths through Groups, Repeaters, and Flexible Content layouts exposed by ACF.
• Review selected settings, including supported field limits, relational targets, return formats, and Repeater pagination settings.
• Inspect clone-expanded occurrences and retained layouts, including empty layouts.
• Navigate every retained group, field, layout, and finding through read-only pagination.

Repeaters, Flexible Content, and Clone context are available when the installed ACF version exposes those definitions. KMS Field Health works with ACF Free and ACF PRO; it does not install or activate ACF.

Review specific configuration findings

Version 0.2.0 checks two configuration conditions:

• A supported Relationship, Repeater, or Flexible Content field has a confirmed minimum greater than its finite maximum.
• An exposed field type is explicitly unregistered in the inspected, initialized ACF request.

Each finding identifies the affected field occurrence and group, explains the evidence, and suggests a safe next action. Follow the finding directly to its field in the Structure Explorer. Unknown settings, inactive groups, and incomplete coverage are handled separately from detected findings.

These checks do not establish that saving failed, data was lost, or a site is slow. Type registration can differ between requests and integrations.

Understand coverage and environment facts

Collection status and diagnostic coverage are reported separately. Green means snapshot collection completed; it is not an overall site health score. Collection safeguards can leave a partial inventory, and partial counts are not presented as complete site totals. Following an inspection link collects a fresh request snapshot.

The page also reports ACF availability and version, detectable PRO/field-type availability, counts by type, nesting, WordPress/PHP versions and limits, environment type, external object cache use, and configured Local JSON paths when determinable.

Read-only and privacy-conscious

Snapshots last only for the current Health-page request. KMS Field Health does not modify fields, groups, posts, configuration, or content. It does not scan stored field values or post-content data, create diagnostic database tables or options, or automatically send diagnostics anywhere.

There is no telemetry, external diagnostic service, background monitoring, registration form, or paid-feature requirement. All plugin assets are local. Runtime performance, stored-data volume, and overall site health are not assessed. Automatic repairs and optimization are not included.

Open Health and get support

Choose Field Health in the WordPress Admin Bar, or Health beside the plugin on the Plugins screen. Access requires the manage_options capability, normally held by administrators. There is no permanent sidebar menu or settings page. Without ACF, the plugin still activates and shows environment facts with an unavailable ACF snapshot.
