Hi @Soulstudio
This is no bug. The result is exactly what you have coded. If you wish to create any MARKUP, you need to code this youself. eg:
<?php
// Adds “Status” field to posts
function add_status_field() {
?><p class="class-here"><?php the_field('status'); ?></p><?php
}
add_action('thematic_abovepost', 'add_status_field');
?>
