= 6.8.4 =
*Release Date 10th June 2026*
* Security – ACF AJAX field handlers now validate that the request nonce was created for the expected field type
* Enhancement – ACF PRO now satisfies plugin dependencies declared against `advanced-custom-fields`, so plugins requiring ACF can activate when only ACF PRO is installed
* Enhancement – `acf_inline_toolbar_editing_attrs()` now accepts a `return_array` argument that returns the attributes as an escaped array suitable for use with `wp_get_attachment_image()`
* Fix – `acf_form()` with `’post_id’ => ‘new_post’` and a `fields` list of field names no longer fatal errors when `acf_form_head()` runs before WordPress’s main query is built
* Fix – Multiple `acf_form()` calls wrapped inside a single outer “ tag with one submit button no longer silently drop field values, `post_title`, or `post_content` from the non-last forms
* Fix – Duplicating a V3 block with identical attributes no longer displays corrupted preview content in the duplicate
