can I use pattern library with ACF?

Hi there,

yes, but only for simple fields NOT repeater or nested fields.
if they are simple fields, then:

1. Add a Headline Block give it some static text.
1.1 In sidebar Enable Dynamic Data.
1.2 Set the Content Source to Post Meta
1.3 In the Field provided type in your ACF Field name.

Thats it

Can I make the pages I provided in the private message with ACF?

Hi Eran,

Yes, most of the dynamic data in your reference site seem to be simple text fields. With that said, you can use ACF to create a custom Post meta field for your post data. If this will be a Custom Post Type, you can use CPT UI plugin to create it.

Reference: https://wordpress.org/plugins/custom-post-type-ui/
ACF Reference: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/getting-started-with-acf/

You can then use a GB Headline Block to retrieve the custom metadata as explained by David above.

What do you mean "most of the dynamic data"?

What I can't create with ACF from the pages I provided?

The pictures are affiliates from amazon I make them with HTML code. For example ""

And I change the "SL160" to SL"500" and after that, I change the link to a pretty link in the WordPress editor.

Is it possible with ACF?

What I meant with "most of the dynamic data" are these: https://share.getcloudapp.com/p9uLP0G0

Basically, if you're planning to add these fields manually, then ACF would be helpful.

As for the images do you manually make each image HTML for each "product"? Basically, how are these affiliate Products added to your site? Are they custom post types or are they added as products through WooCommerce for instance?

For instance, see this article: https://www.isitwp.com/create-amazon-affiliate-store-wordpress-make-money/

I manually make each image HTML for each product and it takes time with the pros and cons.

The pages are custom post types (I make a page category and add them all to that category)

I dont use woocomerce.

I see. If that's the case, then ACF would really be helpful.

So for instance, for the image, you can set the URL as a post meta text field and add the URL there. Or, you can also use an ACF image field, and manually upload the image. Either should work.

You can simply retrieve the image through a GB Image Block.

Example:

Custom Field setup: https://share.getcloudapp.com/WnuZbQP1
Custom Field value: https://share.getcloudapp.com/o0u9vWzd
Image Block setup: https://share.getcloudapp.com/4gu4j6qx

This retrieves the Image you set through the field.

Will it be possible to add the image and change the link to pretty link?

What I do now is add html code (the affiliate photo which is clickable) and in the wordpress add the pretty link to the photo.

Are you referring to an href link to redirect the page to a specific link upon clicking the image? If so, yes. The same concept applies. Just set the corresponding post meta field as the dynamic link source.

Do I need the acf profor this or the free version is enough?

The free version should be enough with what you're trying to achieve.

Would you help me set it up? I didnt use acf before

Sorry, but something totally customized such as this would be out of our scope of support. Reference: https://generatepress.com/what-support-includes/

It would be best to reach out to a developer regarding this. It may be good to look at YouTube or Google for sample tutorials on how to set up ACF. This link I shared previously should help as well: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/getting-started-with-acf/
