Hi everyone I have a custom post type, inside I have a Gallery field, But in code when I try to get the images like $images = get_field(‘gallery’)inside the loop of WordPress I obtain a false value;

Any idea?

what code do you use to display the gallery? and what is your gallery-fieldname?
gallery is an array, that means you need a foreach loop like this to show the images inside that array:

<?php 

$images = get_field('gallery');

if( $images ): ?>
    <ul>
        <?php foreach( $images as $image ): ?>
            <li>
                <a href="<?php echo $image['url']; ?>">
                     <img src="<?php echo $image['sizes']['thumbnail']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $image['alt']; ?>" />
                </a>
                <p><?php echo $image['caption']; ?></p>
            </li>
        <?php endforeach; ?>
    </ul>
<?php endif; ?>

Hi @maitep

It is also possible that you have not correctly set the location rule or the post id.

The function will return false if no value is found.

I hope this helps.
