Hi there,
The theme I’m using (Listify) has a template that displays the ID of each post using the {{data.id}} variable. When I try to use ‘ echo get_field(‘field_name’,'{{data.id}}’); ‘, nothing happens.
When I do a regular echo ‘{{data.id}}’, the post id appears.
How can I use such variables with the get_field function?
Appreciate any input
Hey edmundcwm,
I’m not familiar with the Listify theme, but that variable ( {{data.id}} ) looks like something from a templating language rather than a regular PHP variable. It’s probably converted to the ID after all the PHP work is done (including get_field ).
WordPress has a function to get the ID that may be available to you in the template you are working on. Maybe give this a try:
$post_id = get_the_ID();
echo get_field( 'field_name', post_id );
.. or post a bit more of your code so we can get a better sense of what’s going on!
Hope this helps.
Hi edmundcwm,
I know it’s been a while. But did you solve the issue?
I’m having the same problem 🙁
Hey Infabula,
I can’t remember if I had found the solution to the problem; it’s been 3 years ago 😄 Hope you will be able to solve it!
