I try to display images i uploaded via an ACF in a Widget on the sidebar. What i see is the Widget with correct title, but while i chose all of “image”, “ID” and “URL” as type of image in ACF, i always get the ID as text displayed in the widget.

You can see it here: https://spvgg-1899-leipzig.de/SVLwp/teams/junioren/u11-1415/

Top-Widget “Teamsponsor” should display the image of a sponsor (which has ID 1370).

I see it was there at one point. Is it no longer supported?

Hi,
I looked for a plugin like this.

Is the plugin compatible with 3.8.1?
Will author work with this plugin or left it?

Hi

The widget seems to filter html from the field value.

I use a WYSIWYG field type, but the widget filters at least all p and br tags.

Any idea on how to display the content as it should be?

Thanks

I am using a combination of custom fields and the plugin Advanced Custom Field Widget to make “factboxes” which are tied to the various posts.

Overall this works fine. But when I use one of the many “random quote”/”testimonials” plugins, add a short code from the plugin into a custom field, and then have the custom field shown in a ACFW widget, then the widget shows this:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/www/(mydomainname)/wp-content/plugins/advanced-custom-field-widget/adv-custom-field-widget.php(566) : eval()'d code on line 1

After that the quote/testimonial shows as expected.

How can I get red of the warning and just have the quote shown?

What I ultimately whish to achieve is to have “quotes” or “testimonials” shown in a sidebar widget. However it is important for me to have full control over which particular quotes should be shown in the sidebar of which particular posts. Would ACFW be the proper tool for this?

Thanks!

Hi,

I just bumped into a error when embedding a Meteor Slides slideshow via a shortcode in a Custom Field.

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/screwpie/public_html/wp-content/plugins/advanced-custom-field-widget/adv-custom-field-widget.php(566) : eval()’d code on line 3

Details and workaround on the Mantis bug tracker here:

https://mantis.outer-reaches.co.uk/view.php?id=29

The problem appears to come from line 566 of adv-custom-field-widget.php (version 0.991):

eval( '$cvalue="\n<div class=\"advcustomvalue\">\n' . $cvalue . '\n</div>\n";' );

If I unwrap the eval around that assignement to $cvalue – “it works for me” (I don’t know whether that eval is important somewhere else – I’ve likely broken the plugin somewhere else, but it’s working for now on my site if I replace that line with:

$cvalue="\n<div class=\"advcustomvalue\">\n' . $cvalue . '\n</div>\n";

Sorry for being so negative, but I’m on a tight deadline and this interface in the widget is insane. There’s nothing here that even matches Advanced Custom Fields interface, so you can’t match up your fields with this. I guess I assumed it was meant to work with the Advanced Custom Fields plugin, but this is something entirely different. And it’s impossible to use, unless you have 20 hours to learn it. The documentation is for adding an amazon link or something, no real examples that you can follow and understand, this is just gibberish.

NEEDS A LOT OF WORK.

Good luck though, looks like a useful plugin, at least for the author. Maybe someday it can be coded more practical for everyday designer/developer usage? I mean, how is a client supposed to use this thing to add new content when I can’t even figure it out…

I love the plugin! It’s great for selectively putting a particular ad on a given set of pages.

Is there a way for me to execute a shortcode if inserted into the custom field value?

I have version 0.83 installed on my site. I notice that the current version is 0.92, but I am not prompted to upgrade, and when I check the plugin page through the ‘Add New’ feature on the site I am told “Newer Version (0.83) Installed”. I was hoping to do an upgrade without losing my configuration data.

The shortcode does not work, the generate functions does not generate a function.

But apart from that this plugin works!

Sorry the idea of WordPress is that plugins are simple to use.

This is not.
