Cannot display the option field

I’ve used this plugin before with no problems, but for some reason I cannot get this to display the field anywhere. The site uses ajax to display content and wasn’t certain if there was a possible conflict. The rest of the site is using custom fields too and those are displaying without a problem. Here is the code:

<li><a href="<?php the_field('weekly_playlist', 'option'); ?>">Test</a></li>

I am currently developing the site and pushed it up in case it would help:

The said code is in the footer: thesundayidiom.com

Thanks in advance for taking the time. ACF have improved my WordPress experience tremendously.

Hi @clarose098

I’m not sure why it is not working, but have you attempted to debug the issue?

As in, use get_field and dump out the value. Perhaps you have a spelling mistake in the field name?

Also, are you using the options page fields elsewhere? Do they work?

I disabled ajax, deactivated my plugins and reactivated everything. I think there was some weird caching issue with the backend of WordPress when updating from WordPress 3.5.2 to 3.6.

Thanks for responding so quickly Elliot. Great plugin and support.
