Handling Arrays with other normal fields…

I have a fairly basic setup. I have a need to add extra fields to a custom post and then display them on the post page. I have this code that worsks, but when I got to a custom field that has multiple checkbox selections, obviously that particular field dumps out the word ‘array’, as it is an array.

How can I make this code below, dump all labels and data for regular fields as well as for fields that have an array in them.

$fields = get_field_objects();
if( $fields )

{
	echo '<div class="item-info-custom">';
    		echo '<dl class="item-custom">';
            echo '<dt class="title"><h4>Custom Information</h4></dt>';
				foreach( $fields as $field_name => $field )
					{
						echo '<dt class="custom-label">' . $field['label'] . ': </dt>';
						echo '<dd class="custom-data">' . $field['value'] . '</dd>';
					}
                    
            echo '</dl>';
	echo '</div>';
}

This seems to be working for me now….

<?php
 
$fields = get_field_objects();
if( $fields )

{
	echo '<div class="item-info-custom">';
    		echo '<dl class="item-custom">';
            echo '<dt class="title"><h4>Custom Information</h4></dt>';
				foreach( $fields as $field_name => $field )
					{
						echo '<dt class="custom-label">' . $field['label'] . ': </dt>';
						echo '<dd class="custom-data">';

if (is_array($field['value'])) {
  echo implode(', ', $field['value']);
}
else {
  echo $field['value'];
}

echo '</dd>';
					}
                    
            echo '</dl>';
	echo '</div>';
}

?>
