| Hi Tareq ! I have a website where I have the free version of WPUF. I needed the fields to be accessible from back end too so after created the fields in WPUF, I created the same (same name etc...) with Advanced Custom Field so I'm able to edit these fields in the back end. Now I've added a checkbox field with WPUF and the same with ACF but it seems that ACF and WPUF give different name/ID to the field so the value in back end and front end are not the same for these checkboxes. So I thought : I can install WPUF Pro to have the fields in the backend and remove ACF ! But how can I upgrade WPUF to WPUF Pro without loosing what I did ? Thanks a lot Tareq ! | |

| The free version adds a prefix  What did you do with the free version that you might loose? Any customizations? | |

| Hi Tareq ! 
 In fact, if I use WPUF checkboxes and ACF checkboxes with the same name, the values are not save in ACF… This only happens with checkboxes… 
 Nothing, I was just wondering if I can simply install the pro version without loosing what I did. Thanks ! | |

 May be the format of saving ACF and WPUF is different, thats why. 
 Yeah, you’ll lose them. The PRO version uses a full different approach for saving forms and the form fields. So the PRO is not backward compatible. | |
