Select field as list item category for a gallery always gives first saved option

Hey all,

I just got me the pro plugin (which is great!)
But i have a small problem with displaying a select field inside a foreach loop.
I tried a whole lot of things but i always ended up only getting the field option i saved last.

This is my loop:

<?php 
				$images = get_field('gallerij');
				if( $images ): ?>
					<ul>
						<?php foreach( $images as $image ): ?>
							<li class="<?php echo the_field('orientation'); ?>">
								<a href="<?php echo $image['url']; ?>">
									 <img src="<?php echo $image['sizes']['thumbnail']; ?>" alt="<?php echo $image['alt']; ?>" />
								</a>
							</li>
						<?php endforeach; ?>
					</ul>
				<?php endif; ?>

So i get an output from the field “orientation”(this is a field attached to the attachments) but it always repeats the same value although i changed all of them.

Could anyone point me in the right direction since i have been reworking this “probably” simple loop for a bout 5 hours. The above example is the one i started with.

Quite desperate over here :). Hope someone can help.

Thanks in advance

Jannik

You need to specify the image id when getting a field from an attachment

<?php echo the_field('orientation', $image['ID']); ?>
