Custom fields not displayed on front-end

Hello,

I am unable to see the custom fields I have added in the website.

I have done the following:

I have installed Custom Post Type and Advanced Custom Field plugins. Using them I created a custom post type and field group and associated the field group with post type.

When I go to the new custom post, I see the fields I want. I enter the data and publish. I get a message that the page is published with a link to view it. Until this point everything is good.

When I click on the link, I only see the default fields that come along with WordPress like Title and Body text. The new custom fields which I have added are not displayed.

I am using WordPress 5.7 and the above mentioned plugins are compatible with this WordPress. I have tried it on two default themes Twenty Twenty and Twenty Twenty One.

Thanks for any help!

ACF requires modification of theme templates to show content. See Displaying Fields in Getting Started with ACF.
