Displaying Advanced Custom Fields data

Please see here: https://www.nextscripts.com/snap-features/message-formatting-tags/

%CF-CustomFieldName% – Inserts the contents of the custom field with the specified name. (example: if your price is stored in the custom field “PRDPRICE” you will need to use %CF-PRDPRICE% tag)

Hi,

Thank you for your reply but this still does not work. It only shows text that I write in the box and not the Advanced Custom Fields data. My names are in lower case so I tried that but it still does not work. Any ideas as to where I could be going wrong?

In Post Format I have

New Tip From My Blog:
%CF-DATE% %CF-SPORT% %CF-team%

You need to use the exact slug of your custom field. Yes it’s case sensitive.

If your slug is price, please use %CF-price%
If your slug is PRICE, please use %CF-PRICE%
If your slug is _MyPrice, please use %CF-_MyPrice%

Hi,

Thank you for your reply. I have tried using the correct case and also all uppercase but it still did not work. I have also tried text, number, date and drop down Advanced Custom Fields but it still does not work.

Is there another setting that I am missing perhaps?

Most probably you are missing some prefix that your plugin adds. Most common prefix is underscore. Your custom field name could be presented as MyPrice, but actual slug is _MyPrice, so you must use %CF-_MyPrice%

Hi,

I tried that with different combinations but it still does not work. Still shows all content but the Advanced Custom Fields
