Hi,
sry, i’m a newby to ACF since a few days and today i buy’d ACF Pro.
Please, i need informations (examples, howto’s) about how to retrieve the field term_id and other fields about choosen categories by an author on a page. I don’t know to handle the array, because the author can choose more than one category from the list.
At the end of a custom page i want to list all posts from the choosen categories, like “more to read…”
Hopefully someone can help me! Sry for Newbie and my bad english! THANKS!
Have a good time! Greets, Juergen
My code with unknown php error:
<h2>Beiträge auf VDT-online.de:</h2>
<?php
$terms = get_field('beitragskategorie');
if( $terms ): ?>
<ul>
<?php foreach( $terms as $term ): ?>
$term->term_id;
<h2><?php echo $term->term_id; ?></h2>
$posts = get_posts('numberposts=10&category=' . $value . '&orderby=post_title&order=ASC');
foreach($posts as $post) :
?>
<li>
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
</li>
<?php endforeach;
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
<?php endif; ?>

Hi @jweyc01
There are several syntax errors in your code. Could you please try the following code instead?
<h2>Beiträge auf VDT-online.de:</h2>
<?php
$terms = get_field('beitragskategorie');
if( $terms ): ?>
<ul>
<?php foreach( $terms as $term ): ?>
<h2><?php echo $term->name; ?></h2>
<?php
$value = $term->term_id;
$the_posts = get_posts('numberposts=10&category=' . $value . '&orderby=post_title&order=ASC');
foreach($the_posts as $post) :
setup_postdata( $post )
?>
<li>
<a href="<?php the_permalink(); ?>"><?php the_title(); ?></a>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
<?php wp_reset_postdata(); ?>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
<?php endif; ?>
Because this issue is more related to PHP and WordPress, please visit PHP or WordPress community for further support.
If you don’t know how to code, I suggest you learn it here: http://www.w3schools.com/php/. If you don’t have time to learn it, then I suggest you hire a developer to help you out with it, and I’d recommend looking for one on https://studio.envato.com/, https://www.upwork.com/, or https://codeable.io/.
I hope this helps 🙂
Hi @James,
you are right. PHP is more difficult to me as other languages like VBScript, VB and Powershell. So, thanks again!
