# Setting Up ACF

{% hint style="info" %}
This article is about the WordPress plugin GutenBricks, which allows you to create Gutenberg blocks using the Bricks Builder page builder in a no-code approach. Visit [**GutenBricks.com**](https://gutenbricks.com) for more information.
{% endhint %}

### TLDR;

Do what you normally do with ACF and Bricks, but make sure to set the location rule so that the field group is linked to the template. Read: [#most-important-step-set-location-rule](#most-important-step-set-location-rule "mention")

### Common Workflow

Step 1: Create a field group as usual

**Step 2: Set the location rule to Bricks Template or individual template post <- MOST IMPORTANT**

Step 3:  Apply the field values in the Bricks template

Step 4: Enter the ACF value in the Gutenberg editor

### Most Important Step: Set Location Rule&#x20;

Once you create a field group, all you have to do is set up a correct location rule to make the field group visible when users edit the block in the Gutenberg editor.

There are two common ways:

1. Assigning `Post` to a particular block as shown in the screenshot below.
2. Or less commonly, assigning `Post Type` to `Template.` In this case, the field group will be visible in every block. This can be handy if you have general fields used by every block.
