Generate custom text block
1 reply · Started by baidy on December 4, 2022
Hi Everyone,
So I created a block element to design my post and would like to generate a custom text that will, of course, be different from each post: like a little introduction to the article.
Where I want to put the text: https://i.postimg.cc/3wS27zSt/text.png
thanks for the help
Hi Baidy,
You can use the ACF plugin to create a custom field for a custom text.
Then you can use a GB Headline Block to retrieve this post meta.
Reference: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/getting-started-with-acf/
Once you've created you're custom ACF text field, you can create a Block Element - Page Hero, then add a GB Headline Block for that custom text.
Just set the Content Source to Post meta, and the field name to the field name you set in ACF. Reference: https://docs.generateblocks.com/article/headline-overview/#dynamic-data
