Hi sammamehr, I contacted Thrive Themes and reported our challenges. Nothing came of that. If anything they saw my button workaround as a bug which I promptly corrected them that it is a desired function. I then decided to replace the button with text, link the text to the ACF URL field, then select the linked text and apply a text effect to make it look different from a standard link text.
It then occurred to me that I could add a custom CSS class to make the text appear as a button! Can learn how to do that here: https://www.w3schools.com/css/css_boxmodel.asp
For my current needs I was content with the linked text effect. But for your needs of creating an icon, investigate if CSS can provide a workaround.
Following.
I accidentally managed to get buttons to do this but can’t do it for icons.
I discovered that if I add a button element and set the Custom Field to dynamically grab the URL field value, then the button would only display if a value existed. Unfortunately the icon element didn’t operate the same way. I’m about to post this query to Thrive Themes.
