How to get the title below or on top of the featured image?

I followed all the steps here: https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/blog-page-to-display-featured-image-then-blog-title/4022/2
to no avail.

Any help? Also, can I remove that strange looking icon next to the title? See here: http://122.e4c.myftpupload.com/new-economics-series-part-i-updated/

Thanks!

Fixed all the issues above.

Current question:

I’m attempting to add a custom field (a subtitle) to the content.php file in my child theme.

I used:

  <?php get_post_meta(the_ID(), 'custom_subtitle', true); ?>

Which displayed on my page the ID of the post, not the content of ‘custom_subtitle’. Any ideas?

Hi There,

Please try to use Integrated Plugins - ACF Pro instead then check this guide for implementation: https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/integrated-plugins-acf-pro/49.

Hope this helps.
