Hi, I face some problem. One of my wordpress theme doesn’t work Template Code.
I want to add ACF template code after H2 tag.
Here is my ACF template code
<?php the_field('subtitle'); ?>

& This is my WordPress theme code:

  $data = $data . '<article class="blog-thumb style_1 clearfix"><h2 class=" blogtitle"><a class="title" href="'.$permalink.'">';
  
  if(is_sticky()){
  	$data = $data . '<span class="sticky icon-paper-clip"> </span> ';
  }
  $data = $data . $the_title.'</a></h2>';
 
  $data = $data . '<ul class="meta-entry clearfix"><li><p><span class="icon-user"> </span> '.$the_author_posts_link.'</p></li><li><p><span class="icon-tag"> </span> '.$cat_echo_p.'</p></li><li><p><span class="icon-calendar"> </span> '.get_the_time('F') .' '. get_the_time('j') .', '. get_the_time('Y').'</p></li>';

Please plugin author or Someone give me the solution.
Thanks

Hi @mrhossen

Your ‘theme code’ shows no use of any ACF functions such as get_field or the_field. This is why no value is being displayed.

Thanks @elliot for reply.
There no way to add the ACF function ? Is it possible to add ACF function through shortcode on my theme template ?

Hi @mrhossen

Yes, there is a shortcode for outputing text based values. You car read about it here:

Normally, you would edit your template files to output any ACF values.
