    My request is not bug or a problem, but more general…
    Since, not all of Enfold users (like me) are php developers, I’d like you to write a guide (or a post on the forum) on how to properly integrate the fantastic plugin Advanced Custom Fields in Enfold templates, since these templates are so many (which is the starter template?)
    Clearly it is assumed that users must have at least basic knowledge of the WordPress template hierarchy.
    Thank guys

    Hi!

    That would be too complicated as there are almost endless possibilities to integrate custom fields using ACF. However following would be helpful:

    1- Please refer to ACF docs to find code examples – https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/
    2- Since you are going to need to apply the changes directly on theme files, we recommend you to use a child theme – https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/using-a-child-theme/ so those changes would not be overwritten in updates.
    3- For example, if you would like to display your custom field above “You might also like” in related posts section, you can simply right click and inspect elements on it and fine it’s class, in this case “related_title” – https://i.imgur.com/rkXbR7X.png
    4- Then you can search that class in Enfold files to find the correct file and line – https://i.imgur.com/0LzqewP.png

    I hope that helps! :)

    I know it could hard to do such a tutorial, despite it will be very useful for many of us.

    Could it be possible to do a tutorial in order to explain all the purpose of Enfold templates one by one (ok, many are common to the main WordPress loop)? Especially the .php ones in the root folder and in the include subfolder…

    Hi,

    That is something which – we might be able to work something out, on our GitHub.
    Maybe not for everything, but for as many as we can.

    I have added it to my TODO List. Cant promise when, but something we can consider.

    Best regards,

    I think the original question was

    as that seemed to be too complicated (

    the follow-up question was
    Could it be possible to do a tutorial in order to explain all the purpose of Enfold templates one by one (ok, many are common to the main WordPress loop)? Especially the .php ones in the root folder and in the include subfolder…
    at which this was replied:

    And participant marco3253 was asking about the progress of these questions.
    As the feature request form is frozen, I join in on this conversation: any news on either a tutorial on integration of the Advanced Custom Fields plugin in Enfold or a tutorial in order to explain all the purpose of Enfold templates (Especially the .php ones in the root folder and in the include subfolder)?

    thanks in advance,
    Karin

    Hi Karin,

    I think you can refer to Yigit’s answer above regarding the ACF tutorial.
    As for the other one, our documentation already contains a vast information on using the theme, making tweaks and detailed information on Advanced Layout Builder’s elements.

    Hi, can someone (a developer, maybe from Team Kriesi.at) cast their eyes over a modified custom shortcode – https://github.com/raspberryrippl3/enfold-shortcode-post-types-custom-fields

    It’s built to pull a custom post type with an ACF field into a testimonial slider.

    I want to make sure i’ve done it right and not missed anything that might trip up ALB. Any suggestions for improvements more than welcomed

    #1264982

    Hi themepack,

    If it works properly when you test it in the frontend then it’s good since you are already following the element’s template.
    For suggestions, since it’s tied only with testimonials post type it becomes limited, I think you should be able to create a dropdown for so you can select other post types. :)

    Best regards,
    Nikko
