    Can I use the simple hooks to display custom fields created with the Advanced Customs Fields plugin?

    I can’t seem to display them. If anybody knows if I have to do anything SPECIAL to get them to show, please, PLEASE let me know. (Like, do I have to add anything to the functions.php file or anything like that???

    ~~~~~

    I created a couple of custom fields (one for categories, one for posts)and I have been trying to display them and I don’t know how to show them using simple hooks.

    For example: one of my custom fields is called ‘test_field’

    I put this in the genesis_after_post_content hook area:

    [acf field=”test_field”]

    And nothing shows.

    If I put that same short code in the CONTENT area of the post, it DOES display.

    Likewise, if I just write a bunch of text in the genesis_after_post_content hook area, that text shows up fine.

    So it is specificcally the Advanced Custom fields that is NOT showing when it is called in the simple hooks.

    And yes, I have the Execute shortcodes on this hook checked.

    I have also tried using the PHP version as well, with the appropriate box checked, and it doesn’t seem to work either.

    Thanks in advance.
