Advanced Custom Fields : CPT Options Pages
Small addon for ACF Options. Adds ACF location for each custom post type.
New feature in the major version 2! Important! After update to v2+ you must reconnect Field Groups to Options Pages
Now you can activate/deactivate CPTs and create custom options pages for each CPT. By default, options pages are activated for all custom post types.
Usage
The default functions of ACF plugin (get_field, the_field, etc.) can be used to load values from a CPT Options Pages, but second parameter is required to target the CPT options.
This is similar to passing through a $post_id parameter to target a specific post object.
The $post_id parameter needed is a string containing the cpt_ and CPT name in the following format; "cpt_{CPT_NAME}" and for subpages you can copy generated ID while creating subpages.
Examples
In examples Custom Post Type name is
projects.
So, let’s go!
Display a field
<p><?php the_field('field_name', 'cpt_projects'); ?></p>
and the subpage’s field
<p><?php the_field('field_name', 'cpt_projects_testpage'); ?></p>
Retrieve a field
<?php
$field = get_field('field_name', 'cpt_projects');
// do something with $field
?>
Display a sub field
<?php if( have_rows('repeater_name', 'cpt_projects') ): ?>
<ul>
<?php while( have_rows('repeater_name', 'cpt_projects') ): the_row(); ?>
<li><?php the_sub_field('the_title'); ?></li>
<?php endwhile; ?>
</ul>
<?php endif; ?>
Display with shortcode
[acf field="field_name" post_id="cpt_projects"]
Please read documentation about shortcodes with ACF
Customization
function cpt_projects_customize($cptmenu) {
$cptmenu['page_title'] = 'Dev Custom title';
$cptmenu['menu_title'] = 'Dev Custom title';
return $cptmenu;
}
add_filter('cpt_projects_acf_page_args', 'cpt_projects_customize');
Don’t forget to replace cpt_projects_ to your custom post type name 🙂
It works only for first level options pages, not for subpages.
