Hi,
So I’m looking to create a page which displays pages that use a specific template (I’ve managed to get this in list form). But I also want to display a image that uses a custom field from these pages.
So essentially I want to display an image (named ‘Profile_image’) on another page.
How would I go about this?
Thanks
Jake
It works just like an image field on the same page, but you need to supply the post ID to get the value from. Since you have a list of posts to display I’m assuming you also have the post ID. something similar to this:
get_field('image', $post->ID);
See “Get value from other places” on this page https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/get_field/
Hi John,
Thanks a lot for your help, I’m still not having much luck though unfortunately.
if(!empty($pages))
{
foreach($pages as $page){
echo $page->post_title.'<br />’;
echo get_field(‘Profile_image’, $post->ID);
}
This is the code I have at the minute. The post_title displays perfectly but still not got anything for the image.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Jake
if(!empty($pages)) {
foreach($pages as $page){
echo $page->post_title.'<br />’;
echo get_field(‘Profile_image’, $page->ID); // change here
}
}
Still no luck unfortunately John.
I even changed the field in the piece of code to a text field just to make sure it was nothing to do with the it being an image I was calling for but that didn’t work either.
I’m still having issues with this. Any ideas?
Your previous reply must have gotten lost.
The code that you posted above, except for one typo, looks like it should be working. My last reply corrected what I thought to be problems.
if(!empty($pages)) {
foreach($pages as $page){
echo $page->post_title.'<br />';
echo get_field('profile_image', $page->ID);
}
}
The only reasons this should not work is that profile_image is not a field on $page->ID or that the value returned is not an image URL because you are getting something for $page->title
Thanks for your reply John.
Would it help if I put the code in that I use for the image in my other template (where it’s trying to pull it from)?
Thanks
Jake
It might, there must be some difference that I have not been able to see.
Cool, thanks. Here it is:
<?php
$image = get_field('profile_image');
if( !empty($image) ): ?>
<img src="<?php echo $image['url']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $image['alt']; ?>" />
<?php endif; ?>
try putting the same code used there inside your loop
if(!empty($pages)) {
foreach($pages as $page){
echo $page->post_title.'<br />';
$image = get_field('profile_image');
if (!empty($image)) {
?><img src="<?php
echo $image['url']; ?>" alt="<?php
echo $image['alt']; ?>" /><?php
}
}
}
Thank you very much! That’s worked! I want to put each result inside a div. Where would I put the div tags in that code?
Thanks again
Jake
if(!empty($pages)) {
foreach($pages as $page){
?><div><?php
echo $page->post_title.'<br />';
$image = get_field('profile_image');
if (!empty($image)) {
?><img src="<?php
echo $image['url']; ?>" alt="<?php
echo $image['alt']; ?>" /><?php
}
?></div><?php
}
}
Perfect! Thank you very much for your help John, it’s really appreciated!
Thanks again
Jake
