Label and Value in an array – help needed :(

Hi there

I’m just starting out creating websites for a school project and need some help… Please 🙂

I am pulling in data from ACF which prints the label and the value which is a URL.

Here’s what I’m trying to achieve and works when only one option is selected. It prints the label as the anchor and the value which is the URL.

<?php the_field(]”><?php $field = get_field_object(‘area’); $value = get_field(‘area’); $label = $field[‘choices’][ $value ]; ?><?php echo $label; ?>

The problem is how to display data when using “select multiple values”, how would I print those out separated by a comma?

I have this so far thanks to the support team.

$field_key = "field_5039a99716d1d";
$field = get_field_object($field_key);

if( $field )
{
		foreach( $field['choices'] as $k => $v )
		{
			echo "' . $k . '".',' . $v ;
		}
}

Hope you can help.

John

Hi @johnbell

Please put all your code in code tags so it’s readable and easier to copy 🙂

Hi John,

Try this:

$field = get_field_object('field_5039a99716d1d');

if( $field ){
	foreach( $field['choices'] as $k => $v ){
		echo $k . ': ' .  $v;
	}
}

If the field is indeed a multi select it should work.
