Page Header Add Custom Post Type Custom Field

Hi there,

The simplest way is to use an ACF Shortcode:

Thanks David but it doesn't seem to be working for me, i've added: [acf field="{$event_date}"] to the page header content and nothing is coming through. Have I got it wrong?

Try:

[acf field="event_date"]

that did it, legend - thanks David

glad i could help

Hi David,

A further thought sorry - any idea if I can do this with a PODS custom field? I'm thinking of doing a similar thing on a site that uses PODS.

Thanks
Ben

Hi Ben,

Yes, PODs has a shortcode function that should work in the pageheader. Here's their shortcode methods:

thanks Again David, just wasn't sure if it would work with Page Headers – i'll give it a go

If you can get a PODs shortcode to output what you need in the content then it should work find the Page Header.
