Display fields from ACF

  • Hello,

    I’ve posted a question at your website:

    I’m a havy ACF user. Can I use a php-widget to display ACF-fields? If I can, I buy your pro plugin as soon as possible.

    I got an answer realy quick:

    “Hi Bart,
    For now you can achieve this by using a shortcode.
    In the future it will be possible through a widget.”

    I’ve created a shortcode and called it from the page builder, but nothing is displayed.

    Can someone help me out?

    Kind regards, Bart

    Hello Boaz,

    Glad you’r asking. I did not manage to solve this issue yet. I bought to pro version. Perhaps that helps ??

    Realy strange that a simple “get field” won’t work, only in a template file (eg. single.php). I’ve been trying so many diferent approaches but nothing seems to work.

    The combination of your page builder and ACF would be a killer combination … And I’m getting no help from Eliot so far, the author of ACF ??

    Kind regards, Bart

    Doesn’t this work?
    [acf field=”field_name” post_id=”123″]

    Hello Adreas, that could work if I only need to display a text field. No other type of fields. But I want to be able to do everything I could do in a template file: loop custom post queries and, for example, display an image gallery.

    First I thought this would be possible with an php widget. Then I tried by creating my own shortcode. Both methods don’t work.

    Perhaps creating a widget is a solution? I haven’t created a widget before but I’m gone give that a try.

    It would be a killer if Elementor would make this possible. Then you could design and do sites in stellar time.

    It would change a page builder to a dynamic page builder.

    The only thing Elementor or Advanced Custom Field author would need to do is to launch 100% support for each other. They would blew all other page builders away that same day.
