I created a Field Group for my posts. I entered the info into the fields on the backend. When I saved it as a draft it’s blank on the front end.
Is there a way to have it show on the front end?
You need to modify or add a file to your child theme to include the Field Group values in the output. For general information see

and the Displaying Fields section of

@nycplugged As @lynx_gd mentioned, you have to retrieve and then display the value in your post’s template file. ACF is a developer’s plugin, not a user’s plugin. So if you aren’t familiar with PHP or feel comfortable editing template files, then ACF is not what you will want to use.
Do you have other recommendations or methods in mind?
Are you looking for advice on some other plugin to use rather than ACF? There are several that will allow you to create fields and also create templates to show them. 2 that spring to mind are “Pods” and “Types and Fields”. There are several others as well if you search the WP repo for custom fields. I cannot give a recommendation for which to use, they each have their own workflow. I don’t use any of them because I like coding templates.
