Hi there!

I created a snippet using Woody Ad snippets that displays Yotpo review widget.
Now I would like to display reviews automatically for each custom post type by using this snippet in a custom field (text) called “Reviews”.

The code looks like this:
[wbcr_php_snippet id=”790″ name=”title”]

How can I call the title of the custom post type inside the ” “?

I tried
[wbcr_php_snippet id=”790″ name=”$value = get_field( “title” );“]

but this isn’t working. Anyone knows if this is possible and how to do it? 🙂

Thanks a lot in advance!

Hi Chris,

If i understand well, you’re trying to integrate your shortcode into your template file, for a specific custom post type.

I think it’s better to store your acf value first and use it in your shortcode after.

You could use something like this :

<?php
//First, you have to tell that you want a value of a single cpt
$ID = get_the_id();
//Then, you store your targeted value as $variable
$title = get_field('title', $ID);

   //Finally you use your $variable to build your custom shortcode
   echo do_shortcode('[wbcr_php_snippet id="790" name="$title"]');

?>

Let me know if it helps,
