Ah, but when I place this code inside my home-template.php, its works!

But the question now is, how do I make it so it works in footer.php? I need client to be able to edit the Twitter/Facebook/Google+ icons at the footer. How does one do this?

Hi @nickolaas

Your screenshot failed to show the location rules, so I don’t know where you are entering the data for this field group.

Perhaps the issue is that you have saves the custom field values to a specific post or page. That means the data is only available on that post’s url.

Perhaps you need to look at the options page add-on to save the data to a global / static area where you can then retrieve it on any page in your template (footer.php)

Does that help?

Thanks
