You have deprecated one of your functions that allowed us to insert another Page into a layout element on a different page. I was using it to add footer type content to the bottom of some Pages. You suggest using the ACF plugin for this purpose.
I have started trying to learn how to engage ACF with Enfold. It is a significantly steeper learning curve. Video tutorials tend to be my goto way to learn things these days but I can’t find anything that is specifically about ACF in an Enfold theme. There are plenty out there for Elementor and Divi and others but not Enfold.
As part of a current tutorial I am following at the moment I have created a “Jobs” custom post type. The part that I’m struggling with is how to present that on the front end of the site. I’m using a staging site for this purpose. I have included the relevant credentials in the Private Content field.
I realise that this is a different use case from what I was doing previously but decided that I needed ACF for other purposes as well. Can you point me to a good source of learning for using ACF with Enfold please – using that “Jobs” custom post type as an example as to how I should approach this?
Thank you
JohnHey John,
Thank you for the inquiry.
There is no dedicated video tutorial for the dynamic content and custom layout, but this documentation should help.
— https://kriesi.at/documentation/enfold/custom-layout-and-dynamic-content
Mike also created a few articles that should explain how to utilize ACF fields on custom layouts.

Best regards,
IsmaelI understand that Gemini is likely to get me into trouble but as long as I’m on this ACF journey, triggered by Enfold :), I thought I’d run this by you. Your video tutorial link in the documentation is based on the free version of ACF. I understand that. I asked Gemini:
“I am now doing an ACF tutorial by the author of the Enfold theme. I am at this place in the tutorial. (If that link doesn’t take you to the relevant part of the video, it is at the 8 minute mark). The tutorial is for the free version of ACF. As I have the Pro version which gives me Gallery privileges I would like to know how I can use that at this point in the video where I need to select WP Custom Fields.”
This is the reply by Gemini. I don’t know if you prefer longer responses like this to be entered into the chat itself or via a link. In this case I have created a PDF.
What do you think?
Thank you
JohnHi,
Thank you for the update.
You can import the JSON file using the ACF > Tools > Import panel. Please refer to the screenshot below.
Best regards,
IsmaelI am trying to implement an ACF Pro Image Gallery field on my pages/posts, and I’m encountering the following issue.
Even though the ACF Gallery field is correctly set up with no ‘Maximum Images’ limit (it’s empty under Validation settings), in the WordPress editor, the field is only allowing me to select and save a single image at a time (it behaves like a standard ACF Image field where I can only ‘replace’ an image, not ‘add more’). This is happening on new pages as well, regardless of whether I use the default WordPress editor or the Enfold ALB.
Consequently, the gallery is not displaying on the front end, even with the provided PHP code in page.php and single.php (which uses get_field(‘acf_pro_image_gallery’) and a foreach loop).
Could you please advise on how to properly set up and integrate the ACF Pro Gallery field with the Enfold theme? Is there a specific Enfold hook or function I should be using, or any known theme-specific configurations that might cause the ACF Gallery field to limit itself to one image in the backend interface despite its settings?
