Hi @driscoll62gmail-com,
Thanks for the post.
To get values from an ACF field, you will only need to make use of the get_field() function when calling the value of the $args[] parameter.
If the field is located within a widget, you might need to add a second parameter, this would be a string containing the the word ‘widget_’ and the widget’s ID in the following format; “widget_{$widget_id}”
