[Resolved] ACF Relationship fields in Elements Content Template

Hi Traci,

You can retrieve values from ACFs through Dynamic Headlines, however there are limitations. One of them would be arrays.

To address this, One approach is to create a Portable Hook through PHP code:

function your_shortcode($atts, $content = null) {
      ob_start();
      do_action('hook_name');
      return ob_get_clean();
}
add_shortcode('portable_hook', 'your_shortcode');

Now, we can use this portable_hook in our Content Template as such: https://share.getcloudapp.com/jkuvm5l6

Then, we can retrieve the post meta manually through a Hook Element hooked to hook_name which is our portable hook: https://share.getcloudapp.com/kpuJ4g4D

An example code would be:

<?php 
$relationships = get_post_meta(get_the_id(),'myrelationship',true);
foreach($relationships as $relationship){
	echo '<p class=relationships>' . get_the_title($relationship) . '</p>';
}
	
?>

This code would retrieve all relationships and place them in a p tag. With this code hooked to our portable_hook, the specific relationships of your CPT should now appear.

Kindly modify this code to your preference.

Hope this helps! 🙂

You’re welcome Traci! Glad to be of assistance! 🙂
