Post Object to display a featured custom post

  • Hello. I’m having some strange results and looking for some guidance. I have a custom post type for real estate properties. Then I have a home page where you can select one property from the post object dropdown. That property then displays on the home page.

    On the properties I have a acf text field called ‘tagline’ and I’m trying to get the tagline to display along with the post title and the featured image. Currently I have two properties posted but it will only display the ‘tagline’ text field from one of the properties. If I change my post object choice to the other property, it won’t display this field.

    Here’s my code

    @php
            $post_object = get_field('featured_property'); 
            global $post;
            $post = $post_object;
            setup_postdata( $post ); 
            @endphp
            @if($post_object)     
                <div class="uk-container hero-container">
                    <div class="hero-content">
                        <h1>{{ the_title() }}</h1>
                        <p class="lead text-white">
                            {{ get_field('tagline', $post_object->ID) }}   
                        </p> 
                        <a href="{{ the_permalink() }}" class="btn btn-primary" aria-label="Check it out"><div>Check it out</div></a>
                    </div>
                </div>
                <img class="lozad" data-src="{{ the_post_thumbnail_url() }}" alt="hero" uk-cover>
                {{ wp_reset_postdata() }}
    @endif
  • I tested your code on my end and it works great. Could you please share the JSON or XML export of your field group so I can check your setup?

    Also, you can always use the returned post as a post object like this:

    <?php $post_object = get_field('kurs_zu_diesem_seminar'); ?>
    
    <h3><a href="<?php echo get_permalink($post_object->ID); ?>"><?php echo $post_object->post_title; ?></a></h3>

    I hope this helps. Thanks 🙂
