Hi all, i am total noob in programing, so if someone can help with small code.

I have large number of posts, each post have custom fields (team_1 and team_2) which i stated in advanced custom filed plugin.

And i want that engine lists all that fields, so i am using some code i found online

<?php
while ( have_posts() ) : the_post();
the_field(‘team_1’);
?>
</br>
<?php
the_field(‘team_2’);
?>
</br>
<?php
endwhile;
?>

So that i get result like
Team 1 name
Team 2 name
then again from second post
Team 1 name
Team 2 name
etc.

But nothing happens.
Please, if someone can help with this small issue

Hi @ivanko

Could you please check if the values are saved in the backend? Also, could you please manually pass the post ID as the second parameter of the the_field() function like the following?

the_field(‘team_2’, 99);

Where 99 is the ID of your post. This will check if the value is saved correctly and can be returned correctly too.

Could you also take a look at this page: http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/displaying-custom-field-values-in-your-theme/?

Thanks!

Hi, and thank you for reply!
Yes, when i put post ID, i get result, it works.
But without ID it does not work.
But i am using Exec-PHP plugin for inserting php in wordpress and i think it’s the problem with that plugin since the code works in normal php file.
Thank you very much!
Best regards,
Ivanko
