In reply to WYSIWYG field not displaying nextgen gallery
November 22, 2013 at 9:22 am

Can you check the source code on your page? Is the MARKUP for the nextgen gallery correct?
Can you also check your console log for any JS errors?

Perhaps also test the nextgen gallery in a WYSIWYG field which is at the root level (not in a flexible content field) for a comparison test.

Thanks
E

Thanks for the info.
In the end it was some closing tabs problem.

This is the final working code:

<?php

$images = get_field('gallery');?>

         <ul class="gallery-link">
            <?php foreach( $images as $image ): ?>
                <li>
                   <a href="<?php echo $image['url']; ?>">
                   	<img src="<?php echo $image['url']; ?>">
        
                   	</a>
                </li>
            <?php endforeach; ?>
        </ul>

In reply to CPT Loop not returning get_field but does get_post_meta

The haystack gets a little smaller ;P

Either inside a loop or outside I run that snippet and get “bool(false)” as result with the admin bar and rest of page below where I put the snippet not displaying. If I remove the die; I get rest of page but same result.

All results from postid = 64 from postmeta table are screenshot to http://imgur.com/vKiw951 – It does not have a reference value in the table though the rest of the meta fields useful data is present.

Hi @pouki

Your issue is not with the image field, it is with loading data form a user. Please read the docs here:

Hi @tinybigstudio

Have you confirmed that in the source code, the gallery field markup is not being created?

My first thought is that the $images variable is not working because you are using ‘Gallery’ as the field name. Shouldn’t this be ‘gallery’?

Thanks

Hi @Phil Futureproof

Sorry, but this forum is a free support service for issues and bugs, not to receive free theme development.

As a tip, the function get_sub_field will NOT WORK in the context that you have coded. That function only works within a has_sub_field loop, not a foreach loop.

Please read the docs

Thanks

Hi Elliot – Thanks for the Debugging info – very useful and I now have a page that is at least rendering in a browser window.

Still working on this if statement issue – at the moment on the page, all thumbnails open up to the full size image. However, I’m trying to have a situation where, if I’ve entered a url in repeater/subfield 2 then I want it to go to that url rather than load the image. For me, the fact that this doesn’t work implies that the if($links) part of the code (see below) is always taking the else option, so I need to solve what’s wrong with the first part/option, or if it’s not that, the overall structure of the if statement may be at fault. As I said before, this is beyond my current coding knowledge and would appreciate if you could have a look & see if you can see what’s wrong.

For instance – do I have to include a foreach($links as $link) in this section, similar to the foreach($rows as $row) in the previous bit of code? This might not be the case, but this is where my coding knowledge falls short and any help would be most appreciated.

To view the page I’m working on in a browser please click here

Many thanks in advance for your help

Hi @Phil Futureproof

You say “blank page”. Do you mean a completely white page? If so, you have a PHP error on the page which is preventing the HTML from being rendered.

To diagnose this, you will need to turn on DEBUG MODE in your wp-config file and fix the errors reported.

If this is not the issue, you need to remove all your code and add it in 1 line at a time until you find the line which is not working. This may be the first line of code, but it is smart to debug your code 1 bit at a time as it is easier to solve this way.

for instance:
$rows = get_field(‘press_badge’);`
vae_dump( $rows );
`

Sorry Arcanepsyche, I tried to be as clear as possible.

You ask what is not working. Well . . . to answer that, the page just comes up with no content at all – just a blank page! so I guess I’ve made a mistake in the coding somewhere & I believe the problem is in the area marked // Start/End of section that doesn’t work – since if I remove that bit of code the page renders but without the link.

On the other point – interesting that you say I should be using get_sub_field instead of get_field – however, I have just replaced get_field with get_sub_field in the section of code not working (like you suggested) but it still just creates a blank page (see below for code) – As i said before my php coding is basic to say the least and would appreciate any help you can give. Many thanks Phil

First of all, you didn’t say exactly what is not not working which makes it hard to diagnose.

Secondly, if you’re using a repeater, shouldn’t you be using get_sub_field instead of get_field?

Just a couple shots in the dark before Elliot responds.

Hi @dashaluna

Yes, there are location rules for taxonomy.

This will allow you to create a Video and select a taxonomy (not sure what your taxonomy name is), and ACF will fetch any field groups with matching location rules given the taxonomy selection.

In reply to Repeater field option
September 17, 2013 at 6:32 pm

This should work:

– Create a Field Group
– Add a Repeater
– Add Sub Fields to Repeater
– Add two Radio Button Fields to Field Group (Not as sub fields in the repeater!)

I have these fields in my Field Group:
“Repeater” => Repeater Field
“IMG” => Repeater Sub Field, Field Type = Image, Return Value must be “Image ID”
“IMG Title” => Repeater Sub Field, Field Type = Text
“Row Sort” => Field Type = Radio Button, Default Value = “default”, Choices are set to:

default : default
random : random
reverse : reverse

“Row Limit” => Field Type = Radio Button, Option “Add ‘other’ choice to allow for custom values” is checked. Default Value = “3”, Choices are set to:

1 : 1
2 : 2
3 : 3

When the user creates a post, they can limit the number of Repeater rows to show and choose how the rows should be sorted (e.g. Random Order + Displaying 5 Rows).

Tested and works, could probably clean code up or do some of it differently… this is what my tired mind came up with 🙂

<?php
 
$row_sort = get_field('row_sort' ); // radio button: random/reverse/default
$row_limit = get_field('row_limit'); // radio button: 1/2/3/Custom

$rows = get_field('repeater' );
$sub_field = has_sub_field('repeater');

$img = get_sub_field('img');
$img_title = get_sub_field('img_title');

if($rows) {

    echo '<h3>My List</h3>';
    echo '<ul>';

      for($i=0; $i < $row_limit; $i++) // Limits Rows based on field "Row Limit"
          {

            if($row_sort == "random") { // Random Order

              /* Display Images Randomly (e.g. If 10 images have been added and Row Limit is set to 5, 5 Random Images will Display), $image[0] will pull the image links */

              $rand_row = $rows[ array_rand( $rows ) ];
              $rand_row_image = $rand_row['img' ];
              $image = wp_get_attachment_image_src( $rand_row_image, 'full' );

              echo '<li>';
              echo $image[0]; // Return Value for Image must be set to "Image ID"
              echo '</li>';

            } elseif($row_sort == "reverse") { // Reversed Order

              /* Displays links to images in reversed order. If 10 images and Row Limit is set to 5, Images 10, 9, 8, 7, 6 will display */

              $rowArray = get_field('repeater' );
              $reversedArray = array_reverse( $rowArray );
              
                  if($reversedArray) {
                  
                    $reversedArray = has_sub_field('repeater');
                    $img = get_sub_field('repeater');
                    $img_title = get_sub_field('repeater');

                    echo '<li><a href="' . $img . '">' . $img_title . '</a></li>';

                  }

            } else { // Default Order

              /* Displays list of Image Titles like it normally would, but limited to Row Limit */

                $default = get_field('repeater' );
                $default = has_sub_field('repeater');
              
                  if($default) { 
                      $img_title = get_sub_field('repeater');

In reply to "Buy Now" ACF not displaying on front end
September 11, 2013 at 2:28 pm

Hi @lkamms

Sounds like you have upgraded from ACF v3.x to v4.x

This transition introduced a new way to create field types. v3 field types are no longer compatible with v4 (this is heavily documented).

I believe that your website contains a ‘buy now’ field type which was built from v3, but not for v4.

My advice would be to contact the dev team from the build and ask them if this is the case. If so, I would hire them to rebuild the field into a v4 compatible version. This is a pretty simple task as there is a starter kit available on github and documentation on the resources page.

Hope that helps.

Thanks
E

In reply to Getting repeater data to display

I’ve somehow gotten rid of the endwhile syntax error by cleaning up the comments elsewhere in the template.

But I’m still left with no data displaying. I’ve fleshed out the snippet with the rest of the fields from that repeater field. This is the full code bit that I currently have, but still nothing displays.

September 3, 2013 at 2:46 pm

Hi @mharding

Your value shows clearly that you are trying to render an array. This is not possible in PHP. You need to only echo the $value[‘url’] or the size you want.

Please read up on the image field docuemtnation to fully understand how the image object vs the image ID return value works.

In reply to Help with query posts filtered by multiple field values
September 2, 2013 at 11:49 pm

Ok cool, I’m glad I’m making sense!

I’m using an acf select field, configured like this:

Field Name: q_and_a_category_select
Field Type: Select

Choices
design : Design
engineering : Engineering
project-management : Project Management

To fill you in on the history, originally I had three separate page templates, each displaying posts from a specific term. For example, I used this for the Design page:

<?php $args=array(
	'post_type' => 'q-and-a',
	'q_and_a_category' => 'design' //the slug for the custom taxonomy term
	);
	$my_query = null;
	$my_query = new WP_Query($args);
	if( $my_query->have_posts() ) {
		while ($my_query->have_posts()) : $my_query->the_post(); ?>
	
		<?php the_title(); ?>

	<?php endwhile; }?>

<?php wp_reset_query(); ?>

This works great to show just the q-and-a custom posts assigned the term “design”, but I didn’t want to have separate templates for each one.

So the first thing I tried was this:

‘q_and_a_category’ => ‘<?php the_field(“q_and_a_category_select”); ?>’

I figured it would simply just plug in the proper term and I’d be good to go. But it didn’t work and I’m not skilled enough in php to know why not.

So I did some searching and found this acf tutorial: http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/how-to/how-to-query-posts-filtered-by-custom-field-values

Seems like example 3 should do it, but no luck.

Thanks again!

Hi!

Well, it shouldn’t be listed as a “list” as in

or

.. I want it listed in one line without touching the css so I coded it that way.. Also, there is a possibility that not all the Doctors will have a “Sub Specialty” that’s why there’s this line of code:

<?php 
if (get_field('sub_specialty') != '') { ?>

I removed the array($terms); too. =]

Here’s my final code on displaying the term name:

<?php
    $terms = get_field('sub_specialty');
    foreach ($terms as $term){
        $subspec[] = '<a href="'.$term->slug.'" name="'.$term->slug.'" alt="'.$term->anem.'">'. $term->name .'</a>';
     }
    echo implode(' / ', $subspec);

I downloaded and installed the latest “acf-master” from Github. Works fine for me now. Admin fields work properly, and the public display pages are showing the relationships, too.

Thanks Elliot!
