Hi everyone,

I am using a “Post Object” type field (with a unique value) in my administration.

I wanted to know if it was easily possible to dynamically add a shortcut below the field to come and edit this post?

Thanks. 🙂

Easily? No.

You would need to use an acf/render field action (https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf-render_field/) with a priority >10 to add an html link below the field and then you would need to create custom JavaScript (https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/adding-custom-javascript-fields/) in the admin to dynamically change the link url based on the value selected in the field.
