Hi,
I’m trying to work with ACF color picker with no success.
i have created a custom field with color picket type for a certain CPT, created a post and chose the relevant color.
now i dont understand where do i implement the code to control the class for this element?
wordpress editor doesnt support php so its not possible to insert in the editor. so i have inserted to Header.php file the following code:
<style type="text/css">
.special-color {
background-color: <?php the_field('color'); ?>;
}
</style>
and then tried to use the class like this:
<div class="special-color">Something here...</div>
but it returns empty.
what am i doing wrong? what is the correct way to use it?
will appreciate a little guidance here.
thanks in advance!
obviously Inline doesn’t work for me as well
<div style="background-color:<?php the_field('color'); ?>">Something here...</div>
<div style=”background-color:<?php $post = get_post(page_id); ?><?php the_field(‘field_name’); ?>”>Something here…</div>
*replace page id with the id, where you created the backend ‘select color’
** replace field name with the field you created in acf for color picker
