I’ve managed to reduce the height of the Content block so the ACF section appear higher up the page.
Not a solution, but might help some of you out.

Handy solution that Keith.
Works really well.
Would there be a way of displaying that as a non-editable field?
Yes qiD
Tried having the setting the same as yours.
Must be something else causing it.
Thanks for trying.
Hi qiD
Tried that but it still ‘sticks’ to white even when black is selected.
I tried changing it to
echo $colour[‘value’];
also tried changing it from
array (both)
to value
and using your code as it is.
very weird
As before – it works correctly on the other pages (using my code or your new code)
Hi qiD
Sorry, I’m not sure I get the relevance of that code.
Could you explain how it would help my issue please.
Thanks
Dan
You’re right John.
I’ll leave it up as it might help someone else
Solved!
I needed to use $package->ID … of course.
Can I delete the Post? – was just a stupid error
Hi John
I ended up ‘cheating’ – I just created a true/false field for Pet Friendly.
Not ideal as I would like to use other Facilities conditionally – things like Beachfront, Swimming Pool etc.
I guess I can just make them true/false as well as there wont be many.
Really appreciate all your help … I’m going to keep trying to figure it out as it’s annoying me now ha ha
cheers

No luck with that either?
I’m using;
<?php $pets = get_field_object('hh_facilities');
if( isset($pets['pet']) ): ?><i title="Pet Friendly" class="fa fa-paw" aria-hidden="true">Pet</i><?php endif; ?>
I’ve done a var_dump and get (array of selected options):
[14]=>
array(2) {
["value"]=>
string(3) "pet"
["label"]=>
string(12) "Pet Friendly"
and a second array (which looks to be every available option):
["pet"]=>
string(12) "Pet Friendly"
I’ve been through all the Pet Friendly properties and re-checked the Pet Friendly box as they were unchecked after changing to pet : Pet Friendly (was previously just Pet Friendly) in Choices.
If i use !isset, then the paw shows up on all of them.
So according to this – they are not set as having ‘pet’ checked?
Thoroughly confused…
I’ve changed it to an array, but I never thought of the $pets[‘pet’] option.
Thanks mate, I’ll try it in the morning after some Coffee.
Really appreciate the help

With return value, I’ve tried the 3 options:
1. Value
This works and display the label correctly ONLY if I have removed the VALUE ‘pet’ from pet: Pet Friendly in Choices.
2. Label
This works and display the label correctly ONLY if I have removed the VALUE ‘pet’ from pet: Pet Friendly in Choices.
If i leave the ‘pet’ in i.e. pet: Pet Friendly
I get Notice: Undefined index: Pet Friendly in
3. Array (both)
Error on every facility
Warning: Illegal offset type in
It appears I need to use the Array option so it can collect both the value and the label.
If that’s the case, I’ll need to redo the code to display all the Facilities…
which is currently:
<?php
$field = get_field_object('hh_facilities');
$value = $field['value'];
$choices = $field['choices'];
if( $value ): ?>
<ul>
<?php foreach( $value as $v ): ?>
<li>
<?php echo $choices[ $v ]; ?>
</li>
<?php endforeach; ?>
</ul>
<?php endif; ?>
Could it be the return value part?
Hi John
Yes, I think that’s what’s happening.
I have changed the code to use the value instead of the label, but it’s still showing on all of them?
<?php $pets = get_field_object('hh_facilities');
if( in_array('pet', $pets) ): ?><i title="Pet Friendly" class="fa fa-paw" aria-hidden="true"></i><?php endif; ?>
The error message on screen is
“Notice: Array to string conversion in …”
Hi John
I have created a Field Group with the following inside:
Label – Holiday Home Facilities
name – hh_facilities
type – checkbox
choices –
Air Conditioning
BBQ facilities
Beachfront
Big Screen TV
…
Pet Friendly
…
Using the var_dump spits out the array:
Array
array(24) { [0]=> array(2) { ["value"]=> string(16) "Air Conditioning" ["label"]=> string(16) "Air Conditioning" }
I am trying to check and see if the checkbox Pet Friendly is checked.
If it is, echo Pet friendly.
Hi John
hh_facilities is the Field Group containing all the checkboxes
Hi John

</article>
<?php

<?php get_footer(); ?>
Thanks for taking a look
Just to update.
of course it was simple in the end…
if (strpos($linkout, 'booking.com') !== false){ ?>
//do something
} elseif (strpos($linkout, 'ezyrez.com') !== false){ ?>
//do something else
}
Thanks for sending me in the right direction John

Thanks John
I have to admit, I’ve never used Switch statements so I’ll have to take a proper look at them.
The code you’ve provided looks like it’ll do the trick.
My last issue is that each url has a unique property identifier on it.
i.e. booking.com?propID=1234
I’ll have to try it out and see if I can use wildcards / regex within ACF.
Thanks again for your help
Hi John
I’ve explained my problem badly I think.
The user can only choose a checkin and a checkout date and press ‘submit’.
PropertyA uses BookingSiteA
PropertyB uses BookingSiteB
both have different syntax for selecting dates
The user selects dates then the dates are input into a link ($bookingfield)
on SUBMIT they are sent to that URL.
So if the use is on PropertyA the syntax is
http://booking.com?checkin=1/1/18:checkout=3/1/18
If the user is on PropertyB the syntax is
http://ezyrez.com?in=1/1/18for2nights
PropertyA and PropertyB booking links are managed from the backend – the user can’t touch them – they’re set.
So what I’m trying to do is find a flexible way of checking what is contained in the booking link field and depending on the result, compiling the URL in a different way.
I’ve only given 2 examples of link syntax for simplicity, i’d like to be able to cover 7 or 8 different possibilities in an IF ELSEIF ELSE statement.
This is the current code, that ONLY goes to booking.com
<?php
$linkout = get_field('accom_booking_link');
$datein = (isset($_GET['checkin']) ? $_GET['checkin'] : null);
$dateout = (isset($_GET['checkout']) ? $_GET['checkout'] : null);
?>
<?php if (strpos($linkout, 'booking') !== false){ ?>
<form id="datepick" method="GET" action="<?php echo $linkout . ';checkin=' . $datein . ';checkout=' . $dateout . ';' ?>">
<h2>Availability</h2>
<ul>
<li><label>Check In </label><input type="text" id="checkin" name="checkin" value=""/></li>
<li><label>Check Out </label><input type="text" id="checkout" name="checkout" value="" /></li>
<li class="submit"><input type="submit" onClick="ga('send', 'event', 'BookingCom', 'availabiliity', '<?php echo $name; ?>' );"></li>
</ul>
</form>
<?php }
?>
Hi John
$bookingfield is a url.
field name is accom_booking_link
So depending which website the $bookingfield ponts to, I want to present a different url structure.
i.e. if booking.com show booking.com?checkin=1/1/18:checkout=3/1/18
if ezyrez.com show ezyrez.com?in=1/1/18for2nights
and so on.
Does that make more sense?
Cant you just split it into 2 variables?
$date = date(‘d-m-y’);
$time = date(‘H:i’);
<?php echo “” . $date . “<br/>” . $time; ?>
Obviously don’t know the context in which you’re using it, but that should work.

Solved:
if ($school == $pagetitle)
needed to be
if ($school == $pagetitle) : the_row();
