Adding ACF Options Page fields to cornerstone

[designerken]

I have created an Options page with ACF. This is for content that will change month to month and make it easier for editors to change content.

I have some text fields that I want to have populated on our home page.
I have inserted {{acf:series_headline}} per the documentation but nothing appears on the front end.

Is there a way to have the fields displayed from and options page?

Hello @designerken,

Would you mind if we check your setup? Yes, that is the correct way as using it on Cornerstone.
For the options, I am not sure if this will work. Though it will be worth a try:

{{dc:acf:field field="acf:series_headline" post_id="options"}}

See this guide too: https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/options-page/

I have tried your way as well:
{{dc:acf:field field="acf:series_headline" post_id="options"}} and {{acf:series_headline}} do not render anything on the back nor front end of the site.

I have placed the shortcode from ACF in the field:
[acf field="series_headline" post_id="options"] and this at least gets something visible on the front end.

Is this a bug with dynamic content with ACF? Also how are we expected to display images? I have a image field and have its settings to return the URL. I have tried to place it in a content area but that does’t display the file on the front end:
<img src="[acf field="series_image" post_id="options"]">

Here is the code in my functions file:

function rc_acf_options_page() {
   if ( ! function_exists( 'acf_add_options_page' ) )
   return;

   acf_add_options_page( array( 
     'title'        	=> 'REFINERY Options',
     'menu_slug' 	=> 'refinery-options',
     'capability' 	=> 'manage_options',
     'redirect'		=> false
    ) );

   acf_add_options_sub_page(array(
	 'page_title' 	=> 'Home Page Settings',
	 'menu_title'	=> 'Home Page',
	 'parent_slug'	=> 'refinery-options',
   ));

}
add_action( 'init', 'rc_acf_options_page' );

Here is the setting for the field group

Hi @designerken,

Yes, it’s a bug on both DF and AFC shortcode. Please check this https://theme.co/apex/forum/t/dynamic-content-inside-the-promo-element-does-not-seem-to-work/55451/3

This was already added to our issue tracker and there is no temporary workaround at the moment. You may use ACF shortcode alone for now.

Thanks!
