I have a WP_Query to load custom type posts to the page. Weirdly, after I end that loop, non of the custom fields work.

Can anyone help, please?

Here is my code:

<div class=”testimonials section text-center alt-bg”>
<div class=”row”>
<h2 class=”section-title”><?php the_field(‘testimonials_section_title’);?></h2>
<div class=”medium-8 small-centered columns”>
<?php
$args1 = array( ‘post_type’ => ‘Testimonial’, ‘posts_per_page’ => 12, ‘order’ => ‘ASC’ );
$loop1 = new WP_Query( $args1 );
while ( $loop1->have_posts() ) : $loop1->the_post(); ?>

<?php the_field(‘text’);?>

<p class=”name”><?php the_field(‘name’);?>

<p class=”company”><?php the_field(‘company’);?>

<?php endwhile; ?>
</div>
</div>
</div>

<h2 class=”section-title”><?php the_field(‘awards_section_title’);?></h2>

Yup, that worked. I’ve read the docs to understand what it does. Makes sense actually. I’m still learning my way through WordPress.

Thanks!

Everyone needs to start somewhere. The things I know the best are the ones that gave me trouble, like this one.

I’m having the same problem, but with the

 <?php 

        $images = get_field('clients_home');
        $size = 'full'; // (thumbnail, medium, large, full or custom size)

       
            
               foreach( $images as $image ): ?>
                    
                      <?php echo wp_get_attachment_image( $image['ID'], $size ); ?>
                    
                <?php endforeach; ?>
            </ul>
        

– the li doesn’t even appear on the html – this happens after several loops. All the loops are closed with the <?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>.

Any help?

Old post but if it can helps someone, wp_reset_query(); worked for me (instead of wp_reset_postdata();
