Can you have two acf custom post type archives based off the same field group?

  • I have an ACF field group called Scholarship Recipient Info that has an oEmbed field video_url.

    I have a Scholarship Recipient post type archive where I use that field along with the other fields in the group.

    I want to also create another custom post-type archive where I only display the video_url field without any of the other fields from the field group.

    I’m not sure how to create another archive to use just this field since I don’t see a way to create URL for the second custom archive.

    I am an ACF beginner, so please be as descriptive as possible. Thank you in advance for your help.

  • If you want to use some fields and not others then you have two choices, both involve creating a second field group

    1) Create a new field group with all new fields for the second CPT

    2) Create a second field group and clone the fields that you want from the first group.

    With just 1 field to be used I would go with option 1.
