Hey @eileen.schmidtke.

You’re on the right track there with the logic, you’re just missing a key function to make the check boxes work as conditional options.

You can find the documentation here: http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/checkbox/

The part you should look at is this:

/*
*  Conditional statement (Checkbox rvalue is an array)
*/

if( in_array( 'red', get_field('field_name') ) )
{
    //...
}

So for your code would look like this … I’ve cleaned it up and commented it a bit as well 🙂

<aside>
<?php if ( in_category( 'farrell' )) {

	$rows = get_field('reimburs_links');
	
	if($rows) {
	  echo '<h2>Reimbursement Information</h2>';
	  echo '<ul>';
    	
    	foreach($rows as $row) {
    	
    	// If Page is checked, use page link and title
    	if(in_array('page', $row['type_of_link'])) {
    	  echo '<li><a href=”'.$row['page_link'].'”>'.$row['link_title'].'</a></li>';
    	}
      
      // If file is checked, use file link and title
    	if(in_array('file', $row['type_of_link'])) {
    	  echo '<li><a href=”'.$row['file_link'].'”>'.$row['link_title'].'</a></li>';
    	}
    	
  	}
  	echo '</ul>';
  }
} ?>
</aside>

Hope that helps.
